S p a r t a n SOTF Knob Thoughts

[Jacob @ No Limit]

Lots of super dutys locally have been getting stolen, was wondering if anyone has asked s p a r t a n or if it's even possible to get rid of one of the tune levels, and make that position a no start position or limited speed, say 5mph? Like instead of position #1 being 400hp, make it the no start position?

Valet mode. Thieves could still take it but they wouldn't get away fast and probably think the truck is busted. I love it! Keeps peace of mind when others drive it too (for just short trips it's perfect). Limit rpms, low fueling, etc..

A while back, Matt mentioned the possibility of this and if there was interest. I know I chimed in with interest but haven't heard anything more about it. Maybe try contacting him and asking??

I haven't figured out how to tag someone yet or else I'd get him to comment here...

If you took out the 400hp level, what level would you tow on? I live out west with lots of grades

I've had near 30k behind me on the 600 tune. I just watch my temps and use some foot control.

So the thief just turns the dial and gets a normal tune. Any half bright person that knows vehicles, will look for a knob to turn if the truck doesn't move.

Instead of a knob, there should be a keyed switch to prevent anyone that could drive your truck to change tunes.

I believe what Matt actually suggested was real kill switch, like wouldn't even roll the engine over. And the point would be to not mark it as such, and that some idiot thief won't know any better!

That's the best option a no crank.

Dsp5 has a locking switch. Have to use a key to change tunes.

This ^^^^^^ Take the key with you and no one could change the tune including spouse, significant other, brother, sister, friend, worker, yada, yada

I've done this on several trucks. Especially since I frequently park at airports. They had to move my truck one time from valet parking in Tulsa and I had to tell the manager where my switch was!:doh: yes the truck was still there when I returned!
