SCT will setup your car for your exact mods as you stated, BUT, for a lightly modded car, the tunes are all the same. A guy who has a CAI, TB, and Plenum, is gonna get the same tune as someone with a catted X pipe as his only mod. Those bolt-ons (according to my dealer) arn't enough to require a differnt tune than their standard "custom" tune. But, when you specify your programmer you need to tell them everything you have so that they can get things right like gears and whether or not you have cats. This concept is really no different if you order a chip from anyone.

The SCT Programmer does not have 4 settings as you call them, but in fact has a data base that can store four discrete tunes. One of which is the stock tune. Also, you get a total of TWO custom tunes when you buy the programmer. Mine came with a 87 octane tune AND a 93 octane tune. So a total of THREE tunes are on my programmer. Additionally, I will soon have a nitrous tune. They due charge for additional tunes or if you need tune changes because you modified your car.

If I add cams, I will need to get all three of my custom tunes changed. This will cost money, but is pretty cool if you think of it.
