STi Driver alternative?

[Windstorm]

Hello,

I currently have a STi but am not too happy with it's performance on K band. i understard the 9500ci is better, but I don't want to shell out $1600 on a new detector, esp.since I will be going LI for my laser related needs. Is there a cheaper version of the 9500ci? For example, without shifter, or a non-hardwire version? Or anything else? I need a Spectre invisible unit.

TIA!

Ebay has them for around $600. I'm not going to post the link because thats against forum rules. Send your unit in first and see if there is a defect.

Your best bet is the STi-R since it has the same enhanced K and Ka band sensitivities as the 9500ci. The STi-R plus the LI will rock. Alternatively, a STi-R and the new Blinder M47 J17 will also rock.

The STI-R/LI combo is the route i'm taking..

So the STi and STi-R are not the same unit internally? That is the reason I was looking for something different, since the disappointing performance described in the thread below mirrors what I've experienced with my STi .

I've had my Sti firmware updated twice, and it passes Bel's testing... going to send it in for the ramp up fix soon, I guess I'll see after that.

Hwy always.

Well I broke down and ordered the 9500ci. Just hope the ZR4s are good enough. My car is dark and I have no front plate, and a can of Veil is coming too.

But ebay isn't an authorized dealer so if there are problems you are screwed
