Tuners, tuners, tuners!

What has proven to be the best tuner out there? Does anyone have experience with Edge Evolution #EEF1200? The more I read, the less I know!

It looks like it has a good set of features, and the brand name is stable, I suppose...

I got my SCT Xcal 2 today and am waiting for Matt at LIPD to send me some tunes. On Friday my 4" TB MBRP exhaust and gauges are being installed so after I get that all set I will report back on what I think.

I started with an Edge Juice Platinum and then stacked an Edge Evolution on top. I now have an SCT. I should have gone with the sct in the begining, but I didn't do enough research.

SCT!! Only way to go!!!!

Sounds unanimous, but I'll throw another one in. Remember, you pay for what you get, spend the extra money

SCTXcal2 hands down, IMO the Edge is not a reliable unit

Talking I'm convinced

My only holdout at this point is wanting the displays... Pyrometer, boost, etc. I'd rather have it all in one unit, rather than a stack of A pillar gauges. I'm more of a purest, I guess. I'm waiting for feedback on the Live Wire product. Any info on that item is appreciated!!

I am convinced too, but have not heard back from SCT on the live wire model...

We still have not seen one yet; and as far as I know still don't have a pricing schedule...but I could be wrong on that latter.

It looks like a nice unit; I am just hoping that some of the datalogging and sensor functions will be diesel-capable; I have a feeling it may be more gas-burner oriented.
