Ddoes the sct require you to unplug the EGR like the H&S does?

What tunes are you all getting with your SCT programmers?

No, or atleast I didn't unplug anything, Gabe never said anything about it.

It doesn't required you to unplug anything on the EGR, if you don't have an egr delete. It's up to you, either way you will still have full use of cruise control & no codes

Thanks Gabriel

From what I was told the sct works on the 2013 now?

lildevil02 · May 17, 2014

We are testing 2013 & 2014 support as we speak!

UpstateDieselGuy · May 17, 2014

Will you be supporting custom tuning or just the preloaded tunes?

colecoop56 · May 17, 2014

Is the fuel mileage better then H&S?

lildevil02 · May 18, 2014

The tuning we offer is custom. SCT does not load anything but the STD DPF on files. Fuel mileage is there, how much is all up to the driver.

UpstateDieselGuy · May 19, 2014

What I meant is can the end user get updated files if they make changes or want something revised such as shifting, etc.

So you would say that the sct is capable of achieving better mpg then the H&S? With my H&S I can only get around 18mpg max if I take it easy. Most of the time im in the 17s on the highway. Now that Im getting true 35s I know it will get worse. I was hoping to be more around 20mpg so if the tires bring it down a little bit then I wont care. I guess I am just use to my duramax that got 22hwy and 17 around town.

I doubt you will get any better by switching, but like Gabe said it's all in how you drive it.

Really interested in these reviews keep them coming.

IMO the market is looking hard at this the way prices have soared. I know I am.

jwlandry · May 19, 2014

Wife's truck is on stock tires and wheels and she gets 21 hand calculated. The truck is about to get different wheels and 35s so I'm sure that will go to hell.

I would like some tune adjustments but its nothing major so I just deal w it.

I do definitely reccomends this route. I have a edge insight monitor for the gauge aspect of things and it works great.

Jarret,

Give me shout & we can go over what you want changed.

colecoop56 · May 20, 2014

I am looking forward to ditching my H&S and switching to SCT. I will let everyone know how much more I like it when I get it.

PyroFighter · May 20, 2014

I think the only plus side to H&S right now is everyone and their cousin can tune them. Sct only has 3 companies that I can think of doing EPA hater tunes.

colecoop56 · May 20, 2014

I actually like it better that only a few companies can have the capabilities to offer sct tunes. It means it requires a lot more skill and experience. Not just anyone can throw together a tune and sell it like they can with h&s mcc. I know there are a lot of reputable tunes our for h&s, I'm just looking for more out of a tune and tuner.
