Default Gryphon or SCT??

Which is better?? does the gryphon come with custom tunes or do you have to buy them seperatly??

I like that the Gryphon CS has the screen but I also like the that the SCT is $60 less and comes with 3 custom tunes.. Or im I over looking a better option??

They both will get the job done, but the gryphon gives you guages, and a code reader

I would go with the Gryphon. I bought the CS about 4 months ago and I love it. About a month ago I got a custom tune and it helps a bit. Part of the reason I like the CS is the constant readout so I can monitor what my truck is doing.

Yeah I like the gauges but honestly thats the only reason im considering it.. The SCT claims better gains which is what im looking for im just not sure if the sct is exaggerating their claims.. Oh and the SCT also reads codes so really it seems like the display is the only thing edge/gryphon has on SCT..

Bill at PHP will do better tunes, he spends actual time adjusting everything to your truck only, plus your driving habits.. Most of the other tuners have general #'s they toss into a tune and your done. Bill takes his time..

SCT X3 is good, my buddy has 1 in his 05 and his gf has 1 in her truck. But they have tunes by VMP I believe.
