Spartan is a good product. You won't be disappointed. Coming up 40,000 miles and 35,000 of them tuned - without issue. I tow a 14,000lb 5th on the 210hp mode, and run daily on the 300hp tune (fast and smooth).

Do it all over again - yes I would.

All current tuners are sent out with our V2 software, which shuts off all of the sensors in the exhaust. We also send out delete pipes without bungs in the exhaust. Both Flo-Pro and AFE offer delete pipes without the bungs. This software is also available to current DashDAQ owners who do not have the software. If you purchased your tuner before the middle of September 2010, you most likely don't have the V2 software update. You can get it if you would like.

:whs

I will call sales next week to order but is there anything else i need to know?? If i buy next week will the tuner have all the latest updates you talk about??

Spartan

I will tell you right now, Spartan is second to none in everything. Just talk with Mick a few times in the Tech dept. and you will see ( or hear, rather lol) what I mean. I was talking on the phone to a guy in Missouri (1200 miles from me) whom is selling some items (including Spartan DashDAQ) and we got talking about Mick and how he was out that day with an ailment. It is like a family when you deal with these guys, literally.

im new to this stuff so please stay with me, i was reading up on this tuner and it says you can get up to 250hp under offroad, and then it says "NOTE: Off-Road tune choices from above will require DPF removal are for off-road use only!" what does offroad mean, like mud racing, also does the spartan have different setting you can put it on like example: towing, fuel economy, performance or is it all one tune
