Thats correct. A printer cable that connects to your PC via USB cable. It's easy. I justdownloaded 3 tunes. You should already have the updated firmware version on your SCT. If you have any problems there are tutorials on SCT's website.

If AM already loaded your tunes on the XCAL then no you don't need any additional software. When you make mods in the future and get an updated tune via email, you will then need to down the updater software on SCT's website. It's easy.
