It holds 3 custom tunes whereas the Predator only holds 1!  SCT is also at this time the most advanced tuning software available to the Ford Tuning Market!! We have them in stock all the time and will be more than happy to answer any other questions you have before you purchase so feel free to give us a call.

Both of the local shops with a Dyno use SCT exclusively. SO, i gotta sell it, probably on e-bay. The I gotta buy an SCT so I can get a custom tune loaded. So you might wanna check your local dyno shops and see what they use. _____________________________ KB 12Psi lots of hidden goodies! if your tires only chirp, you ain't got no power (in reply to Boostaddict) Post #: 5
