Sct FTW!


2005 F250 6.0 powerstroke, 6 speed manual, egr delete, arp head studs, new oil cooler, aftermarket coolant filter, custom intake, 4" down pipe into dual 6" stacks, 8" lift, TSD super panty dropper tune.
I agree SCT ..but I'm really trying to figure out the differences between them, besides the livewire I know it does gauges too.

I just use the sct x3 I beleive its called and it has custom tunes from river city diesel and I use a Edge cts for my gauges. It really all depends on what your looking for and how much money you want to spend. Sct seems to be the way to go for 6.0 though.

X3 has been phased out. X4 replaced it...

For sure!

Shot you a PM about an SCT. Depending on what you want to do you can go with just an X4, or A livewire TS. Another popular option is using something like the X4 to tune the truck, and then an Edge CTS to take care of the monitoring.

the livewire ts tuners are garbage from a reliability and accuracy standpoint. grab an X4 or a used X3 and buy either gauges or an edge monitor.

I disagree. Not garbage, but not as user friendly as the cts for monitoring. Also a lot less options for expandability

I have two new X4's that do not recognize my vehicle after updating, at least the first one worked before updating. Both of them were built a day apart, June 25 & 26th. The first one is back at SCT's for the second time, the new one as of last Friday, is a lump of shiny black plastic on the table next to me.
As of this morning, SCT is finally saying they are having some issues with tuning the 03-04 6.0's. This after haggling with them for a month and getting my PCM reflashed to rule that out (cost me $104).
Am waiting,waiting,...............:cursing:
