LS2 Edit - It's out! Watch out HP Tuner & EFI Live! Watch out HP Tuners & EFI Live, you better hurry up or you'll loose market share! 
I'm surprised no one has posted this yet. I saw this in the latest issue of GM High Tech Performance.

Hey isn't Brian Reese the Engineering Director at SLP? You would think someone from Carputing, LCC would announce it initally, I guess.
The graphical interface is the same which sucks. You can't import an excel into LS1 Edit. Also, you can't hit the arrow key to move to the next cell in tables while using LS1Edit. You have to type in each number. Can't copy + paste easy. They REALLY should have of redone the interface.

I actually scan with Edit and elaborate the data with Excel, then copy the tables in Edit. Really easy.
If you know how to use Excel you can do almost everything with Edit

ive been reading about LS2 editing on HPtuners forums for a long time.... i havent going into it myself, but only because i dont own a LS2. (and even if i bought a LS2 motor, id run it on the LS1 PCM since im wired for it...)

FWIW, Carputing started working on it in 2004. It's been available for testing for over a year (as I ordered a large batch of circuit boards this time last year), but I guess this is the first big 'press' that it's seen.

Also, I find it funny that LS2Edit is still using serial communications to go from the interface to the laptop. I don't have a problem with RS232 since the car is using serial communications anyways, but many newer laptops don't come with a RS232 port. They have USB only.

The cable that is pictured is a USB cable... it's a serial looking cable from the OBDII port to the Cable, then USB out of the cable...

I prefer to copy the whole table also if I changed only few values.
"Copy" in Excel, "select all" in Edit, "paste" in Edit.
Works also the opposite way.
