Hypertech vs SCT

Anyone runing the hypertech tuner on their 6.0? I was wondering how it compared with the SCT. The hypertech seems pretty safe, I dont know anything about the SCT . Is it that much better? I have been happy with the hypertech but am I missing out? I dont want to hurt the motor.

I sent a guy to the shop because he had blown headgskets from running a hypertech and 100% veggie oil. It's not a sure thing the hypertech caused it, but you can't get the same results from the hypertech that you can from the SCT if it's properly programmed.

IMO hypertech isnt very good. I have one now and im trying to get rid of it. The power is nice but it takes forever to load and it made my truck shift very weird! Im joining the SCT boat as soon as I sell the hypertech. SCT is not much more money and you can customize it for your needs. My .02 cents.
