Tuner cat is more user friendly, while LT1 Edit is more in-depth.
For a beginning tuner Tuner Cat is definately the way to go.
Neither program will include the cable which can be bought from AKM.

If ya need the cable... Click the link in my sig.

I ride the fence on LT1Edit vs. Tunercat. TC has made some nice changes lately (integrated the programmer in to the main program), but there are a couple of quirks that need fixing (laptop at 800x600 doesn't look too good). LT1Edit has been the old reliable workhorse for me, though. It feels like that good old pair of blue jeans. Both work well. If you're tuning multiple cars, the money may play a bigger factor...
