Tool comparison
SCT LiveLink (LiveLink Gen II) is the datalogging application in the SCT ecosystem. Connected through an SCT device such as the X4 or BDX, it records live PIDs and sensor data from the vehicle, then graphs, overlays, and analyzes the logs so tuners can validate and refine a calibration built in SCT Advantage. It supports OEM parameters plus external inputs, for example wideband air/fuel and EGT via analog inputs on supported devices, and lets users create custom gauge layouts and dashboards. LiveLink is used by both tuners and enthusiasts to monitor knock, fuel trims, boost, and air/fuel while road-testing Ford and GM vehicles. Logs are commonly emailed to a remote tuner for tune revisions in the SCT custom-tuning workflow.
MoDaS (Motorsport Data Analysis Software) is Bosch Motorsport's platform for analysing large volumes of measurement data. It targets high-end teams that record thousands of channels from Bosch motorsport ECUs, loggers and sensors, and need to process, filter and compare massive datasets efficiently. MoDaS emphasises fast handling of big data files, scripting and automated evaluation, letting engineers build repeatable analysis routines across many sessions and cars. It complements WinDarab in the Bosch toolchain, with MoDaS oriented toward heavy-duty, high-channel-count processing and batch evaluation. Used in professional circuit and endurance racing, it reads logged data for engineering analysis and does not modify ECU calibration, which stays in the RaceCon configuration environment.
SCT LiveLink (Data Logging & Analysis, SCT Performance) and Bosch Motorsport Modas (Data Logging & Analysis, Bosch Motorsport) compete in the same space, so the choice comes down to coverage, workflow and price for your specific ECUs.
