Default Ed Wright, Steve Cole, or ? That is the question.

Upgrading to a 3.42 and a Yank 3200 TC. Of course I will need programming. I have done some research and these 2 names seem to be on top. I would like some feedback from people who have used these tuners, or maybe one I don't know about. It would really be helpful in making my decision. Thanks, Eric

How close are you to Boca Raton?
I have the 3.42s and Super Yank 3500, I would suggest the 3500 over the 3200 with the 3.42s.
If you are close to Boca I would be glad to give you a ride in my car to see if you like my combo.

Also, who is doing your install?

I have programming from Pro Auto Tech in Ft Myers, I love it, it has given me no problems, and I got it done in 3 days! I would have gotten the Powerloader, but there was no way I was willing to wait 6 months for the program.

Boca's 30 minutes South of me. Sure, I'd love a ride. I chose the 3200 because I thought the 3500 would be too much. Yank says it's a bit of a trade. the STR on the 3200 is 2.1 which should give me a better launch, but won't pull as hard in 3rd gear. They said if I wanted to change to the 3500, they would trade me out at a nominal fee.

Just e-mail me when you want to meet up.

Will you be on street tires aor drag radials at the track?
The 3500 had a low STR of 1.65 which makes it the best strret converter you can get from Yank because it does not hitt he tires as hard off the line and its roll on performance is awesome.

Probably drags at the track, cause of the 2.1 STR, once I find what I want.
