Ls1 edit or Efi live? Looking at getting into the game and wondering which way to go?
Car is a 98 c5 m6 full bolt on h/c car.
Is Efi live worth the exta dough with the scanning tools and ve autotune feature?
I do have a lm1 wideband installed currently

EFILIVE come std with the enhanced IO , extra cost on HPTUNERS.
It really comes down to the scanner interface , and I have never seen anyone go from EFILIVE to HPTUNERS , seen a lot of people upgrade from HPTUNERS to EFILIVE , myself included.
98's are also a free license on EFILIVE

Enhanced IO is basically the ability to interface with the cable extra features such as a wideband. I am currently offering specials on EFILive and as Tomcat said, with EFILive 98's don't require a license so you will have the ability to tune two more 99+ vehicles.

the "extra cost" makes HP Tuners EIO price the same as EFIlive at $649. We also have a $150 cheaper non-EIO interface if you are never going to connect a wideband or other external sensors. For your $499 or $649 you can tune an unlimited number of 98 LS1's with HP Tuners if you choose.
Considering i have some efilive cables here that people have traded in, i would also assume it does happen that people switch from efilive to HPT... just that we don't post the fact all over internet forums

EFILive comes standard with everything you need to scan and tune. No hidden cost, no BS on the licensing. The EFILive forum is a great place for you to ask questions specific to EFILive. Lot's of expertise on the forum waiting to help you.
EFILive is the best LSx tuning suite on the market. But, if for some reason you decide it's not for you, stear clear of LS1Edit. Edit can get the job done, but it's rather archaic with todays options and limited on support.

funny how .... HPT coins the term "EIO" but tomcat jumps all over keith (like tomcat usually does... never seen him post anything USEFUL in this section).... yet no one better associate "Auto-VE" with HPT (even though HPT offers the same thing and has longer) (also... EIO = Enhanced Input/Output... EFI only offers Inputs right? no outputs? so then it DOESN'T include Enhanced IO 
)Yet all the while... when a certain company is MONTHS behind the projected schedule (what was projected early this year for some new hardware) those same people... who are quick to rip on HPT when they don't release stuff as quickly as they'd like... say nothing....
things that make you go hmmmm....
