I vote for anything made by SCT over Diablo.

At the end of the day, they both do the same thing.

Pick a shop that does dyno tunes that you can drive too and see what they use. I have a Diablo. Doesnt matter what you pick but you want to go with one that the shop has dealt with alot.

both of the above are 100% correct. Use what your local tuner can support. All else being equal I prefer to tune with SCT software and devices. Diablo is just as good in reality.

That is actually about the best advice and I have told that to people myself. The tuner (person) is what really matters the most.
