Default hypertech shogun

I use to sell hypertech chips for domestics and new they sucked but when they offered me the shogun tuner for free, I could not refuse. Now, I regret my decision. The piggy-back unit fried itself. Luckily, it did not get to my ecu. I have been without my car for 3 weeks trying to figure out why my car would not start. Tonite, I found out why. DON'T buy this piece of crap!! thank you for listening.

Wow...I thought it might be a good alternative for those that are looking for a piggyback instead of the v/s-afc. Fatbooty was recommeneding them a while back. Maybe you just got a bad unit or it was a bad install...just guessing.

actually i think it was the unit itself....there is no real way to mess up the install. i used it for almost a year without any problem. But i will tell you, it is definately not worth the money they want for it!

Me too, I have never heard anyone happy with it or seen dyno sheets for them.
