Both SCT and XCAL are very much the same thing, however VMP tuning will pretune your SCT for you, so go there and get one. Both 2 and 3 are the exact same thing except 3 has one thing different with it for newer vehicles, so 2 will be more than adequate for you.

I love my diablosport, but since i havent used the sct tuner i guess you could call me biased. But yeah, the xcal 3 is a tad bit newer. Listen to jthorn, he knows.

the diablo sport is better for self tuning but justin at vmp knows what he is doing and i honestly doubt u will get a better tune unless u get a dyno tune

Both good products, I have the xcal 3 and works great. Don't use budget gas or you'll get engine knock and do more harm than good.

I have SCT Xcal3, simply because that is what my local custom tuner uses. I know people with diablo, and they have no problems.
