Default Best SCT option ??

Ok so i just bough a 2013 ecoboost and the modding has already began...
i know i want to do an SCT tuner, and im really leaning towards the live wire becuase i like to be able to monitor some stuff and my truck doesnt have the backup sensors so i like the idea of hooking up a camera to it. So with that being said.... WHO HAS THE BEST DEAL/PRICE on the SCT Livewire tuner? possibly preloaded with the 5 star or MPT tunes or SSI
im sure this has been beat to death but there are a billion places to buy them and prices vary a lot.
thanks y'all

Yeah it has been beaten to death. Everybody is within a couple tenths when it comes to wot. Everyday driving its all in how you like the throttle response. I'm sure you'll get flooded with PMs with options. Goodluck.

I'm ready to pull the trigger on 5 Star myself. If you find a good discount post it up.

Does it have custom tunes or just the SCT preloaded ones?

3 preloaded tunes and can hold up to ten custom tunes but you can't use somebody else's custom tunes as they are PCM specific

To get custom tunes on the SCT device, you either order the package from the custom tuner or you order the SCT elsewhere and get the custom tunes via mail order from the tuner. There are too many variables to do it any other way.
