Only reason I noticed this was several months ago I was on Hypertechs site looking at tire calibrators and noticed it is exactly same design as the MyCal.

I'll say this... It's nice to see the competition heating up for the F-150 EB Tuner market. Superchips? BullyDog? Sorry, but, y'all jumped the gun. Livernois did it right, which is evidenced by the zero complaints on the tune itself. SCT, I'm guessing, got it right, too. So, who's left? Hypertech? 5 Star? Diablosport? In time, we'll see what they got, too. I feel that sooner than later, Superchips will get it right. They're too big not to. For me? I'm done. Livernois got my $$$ and got my loyalty. Rick has been awesome. He's the standard by which customer service should be measured.

I had the SC at first, and yes it's nice that you can have multiple tunes, but if there's issues with them and you're constantly waiting and praying that the next update that you're forced to downlaoad will fix it, then that sux. And, yes, if you want to switch tunes with a Livernois, you have to download it, too. But, at least you know it will work as advertised and without fail. In the end, you get what you pay for. Okay, I'll get off my soapbox, and start looking for a travel trailer so I can hit up Rick for the tow tune. Sounds kinda cocky? It's not, it's just a fact. Livernois has there ish together.

Ive had the 87 tow tune on for almost 400 miles, and hand calculated, is accurate. Im getting 24.9 mpg? most of my driving is tollway, 70-75. is this normal? I know some is from having a cai and catback, but I dont remember seeing mpgs this high.

I have a question regarding these tunes. People are reporting more power and better mileage from the 87 & 89 tune vs the 93. Why is that?? I would think that the 93 would be all around better. I haven't read every page of this thread but I've read most of it and haven't seen this one answered. I'm not skeptical... just curious. I'll be buying a tuner hopefully sooner rather than later, and if I can get more power and better mileage from cheaper fuel... then it's a no brainer.

Yup, it's the 87 octane tow tune and adjusts for octane just like the stock tune. There is just one tow tune.

Yes, LMS can do a 93 tow tune, I have been running it for a couple weeks now. It is 93 only also.

Rick here is a topic touched on before but need further clarification. If I am going to add an intake (such as possibly AFE Stage 2) does the tune need to be changed at all to accomodate that. I thought that at some point you said some things need to be tweaked if using any type of air intake however there is a user who has had the Livernois tune for a few weeks and he just installed his AFE Stage 2 a couple days ago. He stated that he spoke to you and nothing needed to be adjusted with the tune. Which would be correct? Thanks

I have a cai and cat back, and Rick told me the wideband takes care of if.
