Holley FINALLY Ships the Sniper-2 Laptop Cable
October 22 2023
A professional tuner MUST USE a laptop to USB cable, but when Holley brought out the Sniper-2, they did not have the cable ready. Very frustrating for our customers who need a tune. Well, they just announced the 558-495 Laptop cable for the Sniper-2.

Holley Price Increase (July 2023)
This seems to be a common occurrence. Over the last two years Holley has increased their prices almost every quarter. Well - some prices have gone up again. All the prices have been updated on this website. The good news is many of the EFI kits did not go up, and those that did were relatively small increases.
Should you hire a professional tuner?
Sniper and Terminator-X people: The quick answer is YES!
Regardless of the system you buy (yes, even Snipers), it should be tuned by an experienced professional. You should consider the "Wizard" tune good enough to start the engine and check for leaks. Then hire a professional to optimize your tune for your combination. After that, you use the handheld as a dash but not for tuning.
Holley Releases New Software (July 19 2023):
The latest HP and Dominator software is V6 Build 310, and for the Terminator-X it's V3 Build 110. Both releases offer significant improvements, but based on our initial testing and Internet feedback, they may not be stable yet. Click HERE to go to the Holley Tech page.
Rich Pinoski came close in Super Stock at NHRA Sonoma Raceway
July 2023
He runs a Holley Dominator
Fun and success at the track this weekend:
Steve Keefer's EBMC LSX Nova that I tune (its picture is at the bottom of all these pages) ran a mid 4 second 1/8 mile and a high 6 second quarter mile. This car is not built for the A-Gas class where the index is 7.60, so he was a little fast (LOL) but we were just testing anyway.
Herk Usrey is new to EFI, and on only his second time out with his car running an HP ECU he figured out his chassis setup and started to win. Herk won the event in Super-Pro and also won his first NHRA WALLY. Big congratulations to Herk.
