Go to www.sctflash.com and they have a download section. You can download live load 3. This program will not allow you to see/change your tune, but if you have a laptop in combination with the tuner it will allow you to datalog, and view misc. things with the car.

Nothing will let you see and edit the tune unless you have the full version of the sofware from sct. That is the version that your tuner spent big bucks on to tune your car. Your tuner also locks the tunes so you can't see or modify them in any way so you can't steal them and sell them to someone else.

I would get a new tune. It shouldn't cost ya much since you already have the tuner. If you know the guys name who you got the car from it will help them over at brenspeed to find and make your tune faster. Here is the number 574-594-9559.
