For years, 6.0-liter Power Stroke owners who wanted both comprehensive monitoring and custom tuning faced a common frustration. As KC Turbos owner Charlie Fish puts it, “Are you tired of your screens dying on SCT, or do you have to buy an SCT to tune your truck, and then you have to put on an Edge to actually monitor it? Well, you asked and we answered.”
After years of development with Edge, KC Turbos has released a new, exclusive version of the CTS3 that finally combines both functions into one powerful, user-friendly device.
The Best of Both Worlds for KC CTS3
The whole point of the KC Turbos CTS3 is to make life simpler for 6.0-liter Power Stroke owners. You get a single screen that handles both your gauges and your tunes. The included tunes from Gearhead are solid for most setups, but you’re never locked in, so you can still get a full custom tune later on.
Tunes For Every Build
What really makes this tuner different is that it already has tunes ready for bigger turbos. “What’s super unique about this is not only does it have files on there for your stock turbo, but it also has files for your upgraded turbos,” Fish said.Usually, if you upgrade your turbo, you need an expensive custom tune to get it right. KC Turbos includes files for both stock and modified VGTs, so you can get the most out of your new hardware right away.
Polished Performance
KC Turbos didn’t write these tunes in a vacuum; they brought in an expert to get them right. “I’m going to be honest, a lot of the magic came from Matt at Gearhead,” Fish noted. “He partnered with us to get these things dialed in.”The quality shows in the driving experience, especially in the transmission. “Firm but smooth. That’s how I like it. This isn’t going to feel like you’re getting rear-ended every time it shifts.” He added.
KC CTS3 – The Ultimate 6.0-liter Solution
For 6.0-liter owners, the choice has always been a separate tuner and a separate monitor. KC Turbos just fixed that. Their version of the CTS3 puts everything in one place, comes loaded with solid tunes for common setups, and leaves the door open for a full custom tune when you’re ready.
