Any 3rd gen 4.6's running SCT tuners?

A tuner seems like a justifiable expense. Anyone with the SCT x3 or x4?

I read old threads about it, they were mostly focused on the ecoboost EX.

I plan to, and also plan to purchase a custom tune to correct my tire size.

For your 2005? Where are you buying from and how much?

Yes.

I'm going to be getting one for an engine swap. I'd actually like to know more about other brands before purchasing. Is SCT the best, the least expensive? What else is out there and are they worth looking at?

If you have a 2004+, look into HPTuners. It is more than buying an SCT, but is much more robust and offers the ability to fine tune everything yourself.

I bought my SCT X3 from James Henson who's a vendor on here (jah81592). Great guy, fast responses and easy to work with.

Here's his website and he sells the X4: http://hensonperformance.com/ford-trucks-electronics-tuning/

I'll try to save my questions for him then! thanks

I bought one brand new for like 50 bucks cheaper than anywhere else but to really get the most out of your tuner, you need a custom tune. It comes with preloaded tunes for the 3 different fuel octanes. I'm running the low octane tune and can really tell the difference but I also have a 75mm throttle body, CAI and flowmaster.
