I have a 2001 gt and i want to get a tuner for it but i dont know which one to get. I was looking at sct and diablosport tuners but im not sure which is better. Does anyone know anything about them?

They're both basically the same thing. If you buy from american muscle then you can get bama "custom" tunes. I got sct because the shop that I take my car to get tuned uses sct software. So idk if youre planning on doing anything big with your car but it wouldn't hurt to call a shop and see what software they use

I could be that the PCM holds a custom tune in which the catalyst monitoring system (rear O² sensors) and traction control have been disabled...

Is you plan to use the tuner just as a device to load tunes created elsewhere, and maybe tweak them a little bit--or do you plan to do your own tuning?
