Depends on if you get their new device.

I had read somewhere on this forum they don't make the old one anymore. Am i wrong?

Our new tuner does allow you to track certain guages that are read out the way it would in fords coding

I will take that as a yes. Can anyone recommend another device i can run to track boost amd temp ext. Ext. After i get an LMS tune.

As many do, use Torque Pro with custom PIDs with your fav obdII adapter and smartphone/tablet.

Would be nice if they offered some trade in program if you wanted to upgrade to the new turner. I also heard Cobb tuning is developing a accessport for the raptor. Have my fingers crossed they will also support the SHO

I personally love my LiveWire TS+.

Thats awsome. Does it just connect to the OBD II under the dash?

It does. Google it, it is pretty cool.

The only problem with that is we would have a product back that we have no use for and we do not sell used tuners so we would just basically be throwing them out, you see things like this with any electronic device out there, such as TV's they will constantly come out with new ones and they do not offer any sort of trade ins to help on the new ones, but we did update our tuner to alot better of a model and kept it the same price for our customers

Spoke with SCT about the live wire. It does not support the 2018 Sho. I'll post there response.
Hello Larry, The Livewire TS+ is not compatible with the 2018 SHO. it might be able to actually read the gauges but it has not been tested and it may or may not work. you would also need a custom configuration created with the sct livelink Gen II program.

I don't know if that is completely true.....maybe someone else will chime in.

I get it, but I can’t really justify rebuying a new turner at full price. Getting some sort of trade in credit might make it more tempting. I know Cobb tunning offered a trade in program when their V3 accessport came out. just think of how many new turners you guys might sell with all the older tuners out there and people willing to upgrade. I am happy either way with the product and new one looks nice!

I have a post in the datalogging section (couple posts actually) documenting what can be monitored and what units they are monitored in with the new MyCalibrator touchscreen device....

I will say this, I do not use it for monitoring. It is a work in progress still. Showing what the sensors are outputting in their native format means absolutely nothing to 99% of end users.


Last time I updated the device (about a week ago) they cleaned up the datalogging quite a bit but there are a few areas that are still frustrating which I have also documented on those posts.

I use my Livewire TS+ for monitoring/datalogging. The SCT X4 is a good device. If you want accurate, readable, and easy to understand monitoring and datalogging I would pick up one of the above devices USED.

Until LMS polishes off the datalogging and monitoring options on their new device I would invest in a difference deferent device.

This is no reflection of the tune itself which is phenomenal.

I use a Bluedriver and my iPhone to track engine temp, IAT and timing advance. Not sure if it reads exhaust temps. It is pretty reliable. I leave it plugged in all the time.

Will it also track boost?

Yes, There is a PID 01 08 "Intake Manifold Absolute Pressure". Which can be set to report PSI or you can use the formula below.

So if the PID reports 60.025Hg
The current Barometric Pressure = 29.95" Hg
1" Hg = .049 psi
60.025-29.95=30.075" Hg
30.075x.049 = 14.74psi
