Default ADVICE on: tuner mods

I've got a 2006 legendary lime v6, and she's my baby.

Recently added a: throttle body spacer from Airaid, a short ram intake by K&N and true dual exhaust with XtremeFlow mufflers. She sounds BEAUTIFUL, and is finally starting to get up and go. But I'm not done. I'm looking into some new suspension, along with a tuner.

Any recommendations on some good tuners? ...SCT, Superchips, Diablo?

I'm really leaning towards SCT too, just looking for other stang owners opinions. Thanks bro.

My 02 mustang had an sct, my power stroke has an sct, and my 99 will soon hopefully have an sct on her

Sct is by far the best way to go, but remove that TB spacer, nothing but a paper weight.

If he can't get a refund he may as well keep it.

yeah but it might be worth more to him as a cool paper weight

I have had both major tuners, Diablo and SCT, for me the SCT is the clear winner.

Here is the main factor in my choice (the true factor should be which your dyno tuner uses) is that the Diablo takes a very long time to load and edit parameters in the tune, the SCT is very quick and gets you off and running your next run sooner.

@03shadow, lol...I actually enjoy the TBS. Combined with my current intake and dual exhaust system it gives my car a whistling turbo sound on acceleration.

Well, I'm definitely leaning towards SCT for sure now. The reviews and good comments that I'm getting from you guys are definitely helping. I appreciate it. Now my next concern is choosing the right tunes for my car & I.
