5 Star vs MPT vs Unleashed - which tuner should I pick?

Thanks for the replies, this is the kind of info I was looking for. Do you guys buy multiple tune packages? I can't see myself switching up the tunes very often and currently have only filled up with 87 octane. I'm not sure if it makes any difference for my original question, but I have a '12 Ecoboost crew 4x4 with 6.5' bed.
Top 4 are 5* other 2 are MPT.
Reason for so many different tunes so that when I travel I am certain to have the right octane tune for the area, last time I went to Oklahoma they had 5 different octanes and none were 93.

I've tried 2 of the three you listed and found that SSI has the best power and is smoothest - big difference to me. If you want to limit yourself to the ones you listed. Id say 5 * if you tow a lot or like smooth shifting and MPT if you want more power but can handle a bit rougher shifting.

Based on my research of 5*, it seems everyone recommends the 3 octane variants of their performance/tow tunes. If you do not tow at a high octane you could always switch one up for the pure performance tune. From what I have read, the P/T tunes give the best daily drivability.

Thanks for the info. I don't hear much about SSI on this forum but will check them out. I do not tow a lot but I do not want to deal with rougher shifting either. I am looking for a decent increase in power and drivability but do not want that at the expense of ride quality and shifting.
