Default My experience with Superchips Vigilante

I did some reading and for the most part the Vigilante has great reviews. So I called their tech support and told the tech my mods I am planning for the bike and he confirmed the Vigilante would be great for my bike. I spoke to one of the online shops and they too said it would be great for the mods I am planning. So I bought it and had everything installed (vance and hines big radius 2/2 and big sucker). Well turns out I got a code for o2's reading hot. Was told it's due to not having cats now and I need to contact Superchips on how to get rid of the code. Superchips told me I have to put cats back on the bike to get rid of the code. I really can't begin to say how pissed I am about doing my research, talking to both the manufacture and a well known online parts business and getting two thumbs up just to be told to pound sand on what I want to do to my bike or live with a check engine light on. So I ordered a Tmax today that will be on the bike tomorrow. I've ran Superchips in my drag cars and Truck for 12 years and to say I'm disappointed now with them is a tremendous understatement.

Well, that sucks. I guess they "forgot" to say anything about a possible mechanical conflict since they were trying to make a sale.
I haven't heard of anyone on this or other forums that mentioned running a Vigilante on a bike, and after your experience with it I doubt there will be a big rush to try one out. I'm sure you'll have better luck with your Tmax. Mine has worked great for years.

Second that.....haven't seen anybody use superchips until now.

Tmax will do everything and beyond your needs.

You will like the performance you get with the T-Max...and it will continue to deliver when you make additional performance upgrades.
