Innovative Diesel is a good source. The SCT X3 is the tuner of choice for the 6.0.

As stated above, the SCT x3 is the most popular. There is also the LiveWire and Touchscreen Extreme, which both support custom tunes. I have the touchscreen, and after working a few bugs out at the beginning, I love it. As for where to get it, i'm pretty sure you can buy package deals from a company like innovative, which comes with the tuner you want plus custom tunes already on it. May want to double check this. I got mine from the local truck accesory shop.

Main 6.0l custom tuners are Innovative, River City Diesel, and Elite Diesel im pretty sure. I tried 3 custom innovative tunes, and like them. Today is my first day trying some Elite Diesel Tunes, and I think I like them better. But like I said, it's my first day trying them.

Anyone using the SCT Livewire 9600 on a 2006 F350 6.0L? How do you like it? I have a CEL on from a EGR Delete when I bought the truck and just want the light off. I do tow a race trailer on weekends thats about 11,000lbs. I guess this will help with towing also? Thanks
