Where's the best place to order a SCT tuner that comes with a few custom tunes as part of the package? Looking for rear 02's disabled, cam phaser lockouts, 87 and 93 octane, and PATS system disable so I don't have to spend a ton on getting a second key.

I found one on Craigslist SCT X4 for $200, then paid $135 for two custom tunes from MPT Custom Tunes. I initially wasn't planning on custom tunes and just needed the SCT to adjust tire and gear settings. So I don't know if my route was the cheapest option. Sounds like I could have got an Edge Evolution with canned tunes for about that cost.

I have a Livewire with 5 custom MPT tunes. It is by far the best mod money spent to date. Thought I would mostly use the 87 octane economy tune for everyday until the day I tried 91 performance. It is amazing how much extra power it makes with that tune and it actually gets high 19 - 20 mph highway (65mph) w/ 373 gears.
Highly recomend MPT.
I bought the package from MPT.

Looking over the packages MPT offers on their website..... What's the real difference in functionality between the SCT X4 and the SCT Livewire? I know the display is different and the shape of the tuner. I know the physical differences, but what are the functional differences if any? Anyone have experience or knowledgeable incite? Both come with 3 tunes. Thanks.

It looks to me like the Livewire offers some real time monitoring, kind of like an Edge Evo. None of that on the X4

You can hook the x4 to a laptop and do it. I had a old sct sf3 and did it with my mustang.

Answering my own question.... Both monitor real time and allow you to adjust the exact same things. The only real differences are the "built in" features such as touch screen, rear view camera input, display auto off, things like that. When it come to the actual reading and tuning of the vehicle, they perform similarly. Got info from SCT directly.

Rear view camera ability on the Livewire was the decision point for me.

Already have one, so not a deal breaker for me.
