I want a 5 Star so damn bad. Im only at 1600 miles though, just worried about my warranty. I know I have to pay to play, just don't know if its worth it.

Yes. He is a having a sale right now .. 5 tunes instead of 3.

Doesn't he do 5 tunes now? Or is that someone else I'm thinking of?

My email to Mike at 5 star:

Mike,

So I'm still confused on one thing here bud.

Lots of places sell the SCT Tuner for $379 and it says "preloaded with 3 tunes"

Whats different from your tunes and those tunes from a preloaded one.

I just don't think I'm understanding the difference in price if they are the same tunes.

Please explain for me.

Thanks,

Jarrod

From Mike at 5 Star:

really very simple, same device comes with preloaded tunes and as well comes with custom tunes

Guess I got my answer.

it's $50 more is that worth the customer serves? I get mine redone updated anytime I want. I went local because I knew the guy. Most venders on FRF are worth it so when it's a matter of $50 no questions asked fix or replacement I think it's worth it.

No i agree totally even though I'm a cheap bastard. How ever I don't like to be played by vendors and to me it seemed that way a little when I emailed him a few months ago; honestly it was me being ignorant because I didn't understand what he was talking about. (bad experiences at evolutionm.net with their vendors so I'm always on the defense.)

I actually called Mike at 5 star and he explained everything to me. I'm putting an order in with him as we speak seeing my local guy prefers imports and not get involved in something he doesn't know.

I would like nothing more than people to start calling my guy and saying Wilson sent me but if he want's to play I told him to get on FRF. I'd go with FRF if mail ordering altho I know my guy takes care of business or I wouldn't recommend him.
