which programmer/tune

ok so I just bought a powermax turbo, so now I am thinking of getting a tune to compliment it.

First off I am not studded so do not want anything too extreme. Just a little more umph and better towing. Maybe I will studded in the future, but not sure right now.

So I am thinking either the atlas 40 tune or an sct with IDP's tunes, or even someone else's.

A couple questions
For the atlas tune, I went to powerhungry's website and it seems like you either need to send in your ficm or get a gryphon cts/cs Am I right?

For the sct I see there are several different types. The sct3, the itxs wireless, the ipd preprogramed.

So I know this is a loaded question, but which one is right for me?

Thanks for your input

matt @ gearhead is a great tune writer, he can write a non studed power max tune. The tuner depends on what you want, im happy with my sct flash tuner. I hope you like the whisteling!
