Just like Jared said....its pretty pricey for what it is.

If your wanting something to tune your ride...stick with an XCAL3. If you havent yet purchased a cold air kit...purchase the XCAL3/CAI in a combo and save yourself some money.

Make sure when your purchasing a tuner you purchase direct from a reputable tuner. Otherwise your going to get what we call "Shit Canned" tunes. They are tunes that come preprogrammed for a number of cars...they arent specific to your car and the mods you have currently.

Livewire is good, but most that have purchased it have regretted it for one reason or another. Most only use it to tune the car and dont use all the features...its up to you...just a lot of money to just program the car.

I would suggest purchasing an XCAL3 and CAI from either Bamachips or Brenspeed both will customize tunes for your ride specific to the octane you request.

If you have anymore questions feel free to ask

If you want a livewire I can get them cheaper PM and I will let you know how much they do alot of stuff they have 3 sct tunes on them and can also have 3 custom tunes. The live wire can take the place of gauges you can read boost, EGT or any 5 volt analog signal that you can find.

Dont get the livewire. Its like you buying a 3,000 dollar computer for the house and only playing solitare on it. Just to much machine for what you need most of the time.

I believe he never did. Last time I talked to him he didn't have it on, which was like 3 weeks ago.
