I had Unleashed before MPT. Unleashed gives you very cookie cutter tunes. In other words, you get what everyone else gets. Not very custom in my opinion. How else can he send you a tune in a matter of an hour or less? Nothing against him at all, he built a good tune, but it is well known that they are underpowered when compared to MPT and others.

Difference between Unleased and MPT is substantial to say the least. Then after datalogging mine a few times and sending it to MPT to have it even more refined, it is even better. They really do cater it specifically to your truck and environment.

Nothing, if I did it would be a tune and that's it. Everything else is show piece stuff. (Not performance)

I think my plan at this point is to get the CTS Livewire with custom tunes from 5 star. Although the $650 price tag is a little hard to swallow. I like the idea of lifetime tunes that way if I do add upgrades or change tire size they can update the tune accordingly. After that I'm guessing I'll go with the usual stuff, exhaust, CAI, charge pipe, etc.

Anyone else think MPT is better than Unleashed for a tune?

Cold Air intake, it let me hear the whistle a little more. Had a rough country level kit and 35 inch toyo mts installed at the dealership on the day of purchase so technically that was my first upgrade but performance wise, the CAI. Im about to go with an MPT tune since my warranty just ended and seriously considering some borg warner turbos. Its all about how much money you want to throw into the money pit that is your truck

I'm gonna have my truck for quite a while. Definitely won't do anything until the wife gets a new Explorer. I would love to upgrade the turbos on mine but not looking to drop that much into it at this point.
