    91 is fine bdx is easier to install. You only need wifi no computer. It has a cloud you download the tunes from the bdx. I am n/a and it works great. Bdx and gt is the same gt gets mounted near the arm pillar and stores 3 tunes so you can switch within minutes and bdx is handheld and stores one tune at a time, but it takes 15 minutes to switch tunes
    Both have the same tunes.

    I noticed bdx comes in 40470 and 40490. Which one is better or does it matter?

    I was wrong, Gt is the nicer one to use if you need to change it for towing. I have the bdx
