Do you have a tuning background? The holley has good tech support and lots of people to answer any questions you have, keep that in mind when picking out a system.
That's what I like about the Dominator, Holley has great tech support.

JAX04 that would be on my personal cars where the choice is mine to make.
I tune everything for a living.

I've been tuning my car with HPT for around 4-5 years. Just never thought I would need a aftermarket ECU until Doug (Camaro9969) made me buy a 94mm billet turbo....

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Trolling" redirects here. For other uses, see Troll (disambiguation).

In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

So 99% of all forum members are "Trolls" from time to time.

Pretty sure I am going to go with the Dominator. The features and price are a big seller and after talking with the guys at LME who are building my engine they recommended this one as I plan to do some or all of the tuning on it.

He did state though that any of these will do what is needed.

we have had great success on n/a and turbo cars with the HP and Dominator from Holley.

No need to pay a tuner $600+ for a tune. Tuners in my area cost more than that for a forced induction tune. The boost by gear is great.... data logging is good, you can have files for pump gas 91/93 and also e85 for kill, lean cruise, 2 step, good stuff and no engineering degree needed to figure out the software.
the LS wiring harness is a snap to install and not grossly overpriced.

My buddy sold his FAST because the Holley interface is just that much easier to use.

My car ran low 10's all motor without ever seeing a dyno. It rips. 3K+ miles and no issues.

wow, that's the first time I've heard that. I just bought the S2000 and it seems pretty nice. just wish they had the tranny control built in (it's coming)

curious what makes you prefer the Haltech??

I just sold my hp tuners for the dominator. It is an amazing system and i already love it way more than i thought I could. The self tune is awesome and i think that anyone who can turn on a lap top can work their way through the system. It has a wonderful help button at the top and explains what everthing does. If you can go a head and get the dominator over the HP. you will use the inputs and outputs really fast. Every day i am finding new things to add and it really just takes a few minutes to pin map something. Its the best money i have spent on my truck.

Heard that story couple of times. Ppl really seem to love everything about the Dominator, being able to switch maps with a couple of touches is a big plus, never have to carry a laptop again.

Does the Holley Dominator still require the use of aftermarket gauges or can it interface with the stock cluster unit now?

I got an email awhile back that said some of the gauges can be used. Skinnies on here said that if you want to keep the gauges you can run both pcms and split the harness. I forgot which sensors he said you couldn't split though



Quick Reply: 1500hp what system to use? XFI, Holley Dominator, MS3 Pro?
