SCT vs dablosport

I have a 2010 SS, auto, Airraid CAI, and muffler delete(hope to replace with some magnaflows). I do not intend on racing, just a badass daily driver so no other go fast parts are planned.
If anybody could give me direction on a comparison of a canned tuner and a custom tuner, I've read a lot and JRE performance seems tops. What should i expect perfornace wise?
Experiences if you've had similar mods and each tuner would be great!!
Thanks for any input.

If you're going to buy a handheld tuner, might as well get the SCT from JRE w/ the included free custom tune. The "canned" tunes are crap. Any of the JRE SCT Tune Instruction threads will have plenty of info and customer feedback.

I've read plenty from those but can't say I've seen many for handhelds, or any that had a canned tune then went to custom. With similar mod list.
That's the way I'm leaning though.custom.

I have the trinity. I went with it because it has the monitoring and gauge functions as well as the tuning functions.

From what I have gathered the SCT is better if you are going with power adders and/or a cam. I was leaning towards the Trinity because of the monitoring and et/0-60 etc. gauges.

Anyone else with any input or a correction on my post?

Camaro Corvette GTO Truck performance tuner in Tampa

I favor HP Tuners.

It gives you the best scanning tools and access to the most tables.

$649.00 and you can tune four cars for the price.
