chip 125
safc 280
logger 175
plus more.......
That right there is more money than the link, with less performance. if you consider global injector correction a valid sustitution you need to do more research.

As far as the 2544, I know some people that also had first access to this turbo as well. It does spool nicely but even forced performance is not fond of this turbo. I has a high exhasut to intake pressure ratio which hurts power.

Most people who are at the point where they are considering DSMLink have a logger already so cut $175 off... I got a great deal on an SAFC2 for 250 bux back in September.... All that vs..

$645 for DSMLink V2 w/ socketing
$250+ for a decent notebook... Explain how it's cheaper

Well, you need a plam of some sort to view the logger. Palms can be used to control dsmlink. If you didn't have a logger, you can buy a refurbished palm 3c for like 100 bux. You also have no means to control timing and that would cost about 250-300. If you already have a logger you can sell it as OBD2 loggers won't let you read knock, just timing advance. I can set my tuning up to get lots of knock and still get like 17 deg advance. A very unsafe tune that would look perfectly safe to a logger.

On a budget, why not. That doesn't mean it is a viable option to dsm link. If you are looking at a 1200 turbo, I doubt money is that tight.

And this guy is already planning for DSMLink. IMHO, the keydiver is a waste of time and money to buy a halfway solution in this situation. DSMLink is much more than an S-AFC + keydiver + pocketlogger, especially since he can't log at a high data rate or log knock without DSMLink. If he's planning on getting a $1200+ turbo, it's worth it to build the right foundation.
