Default am i gunna get my bang for my buck

ive got a little cash to blow so i figured what better way to do it than spend it on my car. so ive been searchin around on the web and i found this package deal that caught my eye. it includes pulleys and the choice between a flash tuner or a superchip
the real question is can i trust this site?
is it worth the money?
is there a difference between a flash tuner and a superchip?
and if its not any good where should i look?

I have seen bad posts about them too. But i have delt with them personaly 3 times and each time it was great. I have had no problems what so ever. But if you order from them, order by the phone. It goes quicker and easier but ordering online isnt a porblem either. So i personally think that rpmoutlet is great.

THey're paid by a competitor.

I've used them for a while, and I haven't had any problems.

I've had more problems even finding someone manning the phones at other sites.

RPM outlet is the only one with 42% underdrivers, and those recepture the most power. I've been running them for 2 years now, with no problems.

They're both tuners, superchip produces the other.

The package is good, but I'd go with a DeMolet Densecharger intake.

which pulley?

the crank pulley and the harmonic balancer are one unit on 99+ v6 cars . ..


Everyone's going SCT nowadays, but most manufacturers (Steeda, ATI, etc.) tend to go Diablo Sport.

I don't think it makes much difference, but SCT seems to be able to deliver custom programs faster.

Unless you're planning something wild, like a power adder WITH cams, etc., I think you'll be happy either way.

I used to live in Arkansas, and it only took 5 mins longer to cool, & I've never used max.

It does nothing to the brakes, and there is a bit more effort in the steering at low speeds, but it's more like the difference between a european car's effort and the finger turning of stock.

I actually prefer the lower effort at highway speeds, which is where I spend a majority of my time.

P.S. It gets pretty darned hot up here, too.

It would reach over 110 in the summer at times, over 120 with the heat index, in Kansas. Here in Omaha, since the city's on the river it gets hot AND humid.

We get the worst of all weather on the Great Plains! below zero in the winter and hot as all get out in the summer.

My senior year it was 68 below zero with the wind chill for the footbqall championship in h.s. -That was pure misery!
