I was wondering aswell how it compares to the rest. From what ive seen it seems likes it has the most gains. I just ordered the xcal 3 a few days ago.

I received my Livewire "Package" yesterday evening. I ordered it from 5 Star Tuning late Sunday afternoon. I ordered a K&N CAI kit yesterday afternoon as well. My plan is to install the CAI kit first to see what improvements that yields (MPG, power, etc). Then install the Livewire to see the effect of the combination. I'll report back in a few weeks.
