Edge vs SCT???

[Scolesy8]

lookin into gettin a chip. i'm between either an Edge CTS or the new SCT livewire. i know people with the CTS and have been around them, but there's nobody around here with the livewire. i'd like to get some other peoples opinion bout the SCT before i buy one. how do you like it? is the touchscreen display nice, are the gauges available nice, ease of use, ect. just lookin for thoughts, opinions, and pros/cons to the both of them.

Nobody around here uses a CTS for a "chip". People who have them use them strictly for a gauge monitor. I have yet to hear anyone say anything bad about them, and they seem to be a very popular way to go for gauges. If you plan on putting tunes on the truck there is nothing out there that will hold a candle to custom SCT tunes that can be purchased through numerous diesel performance shops. I personally have a SCT Livewire TS, I use it for gauges and since it's SCT I can load custom tunes on it. Which is convenient because I won't have to unplug my gauges in order to swap tunes. As far as ease of use, my LWTS took a little getting use to. The touch screen is a little different than what I am used to but shortly after installing it I was already getting the hang of it. If you are strictly looking for gauges, I personally don't think that you could go wrong with either. If your going to be tuning it, you'll be money ahead with the LWTS. Good Luck and let us know what you decide!

^ what he said

agreed

I have the Edge Juice w/ attitude. it comes with the CTS and it's own canned tunes. I love the monitor, but I'm not too crazy about the rest of the system.
If I had it to do over again, I'd go with the SCT Livewire. All in one and alot less fuss. Your truck will like it better and you can go the custom route later without any issues.
With the Edge, I'm stuck with the tunes it came with.

---Go with the SCT, you'll thank me later.

If you are set on only those two options, the Livewire TS is the way to go. It is a better deal than the Edge because it will hold custom tunes as well as monitor.

If you are open to other options, we also have the Infinity. It blows both the Livewire TS and the CTS out of the water. It will tune, monitor generic and enhanced Ford PID's, datalog, run tests(KOEO/KOER, buzz, cylinder contribution, glow plug), play media, and more.

You can check it out by clicking HERE.

Whatever you decide to go, we can help you out. We carry both the Livewire TS and the Infinity.

Contact me if you have any other questions.

We have a lot of customers using it. That number continues to grow every day, but the Infinity was only released in October so it is still fairly new. We have not heard any complaints so far.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about it.
