I've decided that I am going to buy a tuner soon as my first upgrade. Out of the 3 popular one's, Hypertech-Superchips-Predator.... Which would be the best buy for a stock setup??

 

Hypertech and Superchips are not a popular solution for a Lightning these days(I don't think Hypertech ever was). It is Predator vs SCT..

I like my SCT Xcalibrator 2.

Save the money, get some bolt-ons first: Intake, pulley, exhaust, etc. then get a dyno tune. Most L tuners (the good ones) use the Xcal2 (sct) or the Predator (diablo sport).

 

....yea im new this, I used to have a lariat and a powerstroke before that so alot of people really like superchips and hypertech between those two.

 

Don't get either of those. SCT or Diablo for L's.

Good Luck

Mark, who do you think makes our SCT Xcal2's??? Superchips is SCT.. i believe it stands for Super Chips Tuner..

 

I don't think it's which device you use that's the most improtant, it's who is doing the tuning.

I just got the XCAL2 from Troyer Performance. Haven't had a chance to plug it in yet though so I can't tell you what I think.

 

I'm pretty sure that they are separate companies though? I'm sure someone knows the deal. And learn how to quote correctly chump....

yup 2 different companies

 

i thought it was the same company.. wasnt it how SCT got started?? by affiliating with superchips??
