    I have a 2002 GTP, and I recently bought the SCT X4 tuner from PFYC.com. I can't seem to get this thing to do anything except see DTC codes, and clear them. Also, I don't see the preloaded tunes or anything. Can anyone provide some assistance?

    No idea on those, I just know I'd never buy one for a GM car. Pre-loaded tunes like those could create more problems in my eyes.

    I'd talk with SCT themselves or re-read the user manual on doing it all. The only real tuners out there for these cars are HP Tuners and DHP tuner. Both of those you can actually make the changes yourself and do data logging/adjusting on your own.

    They don't. I found out the hard way. I bought it off PFYC.com and read all the reviews and stuff and it stated it was compatible....anyways I called SCT and it isn't, so I called PFYC and they swore to me it was, even after I told them what SCT said. I told them they should probably give SCT a call before they damage their credibility.

    could buy a real tuner for the same money or less. dhp is 250, hp is closer to 500.

    Yup, that's my next move.
