Default SCT LiveWire

I just Recieved the SCT LiveWire Tuner and I had a couple of questions. Does the tuner always need to be plugged into the car? If I tune the car and take out the tuner what will happen? Is there anything I should know about this tuner? What should I do with the spark plug degrees and other stuff I can change?

There should be some "canned" tunes that came with it. Don't tinker with stuff unless you know what you're doing. Best thing to do is install the mods you want, then go to a dyno shop and have them custom tune your car on the dyno with the tuner.

Just plug into your OBD II port, tune, unplug, and run.............. no problems at all.

I don't need to keep the tuner plugged in. When I took the tuner out of my car it felt slower. Then I uninstalled the tune and it felt like it was working better. Should I keep my tuner in the car if I tune it?
