Neither. I ordered it under my legal name. It took about 48 hours to ship, and 5 days to arrive. Maybe it's because I have a '98, I dunno... But I had it here in about a week.

What that is telling you is it's actually shifting at a higher rpm than you set. So raise the rev limiter (fuel cutoff) 200 rpm or lower the shfit point (or a combo) & that should go away. As Rokko said, some cars need to have the mph tables dead on too. But according to the rules it's supposed to be the rpm table that controls it. Normally the mph controls the non-WOT shift points. But maybe you have one of those cars....

I'm waiting for the next trip to the track so I can log my runs all night... that little MPVI box is freakin cool, I love that thing, and it's a lot better than having the laptop inside my car. It will be nice to finally determine for sure what makes my car run .2 slower all of the sudden.

I need to get one of those updated interfaces. Those are bitchin! I think it's 200 bucks for the upgrade for me. Just gotta pull the trigger.

If you have the standard one it's $289 + shipping.

I figured it was $150 more to get it now, I'll crash the bucks for it.. and I'm glad I did. Took me a little while to figure out how to get it to log, but now that it's set up for it, it's easy as hell and it stores like an hour and a half of logged data.

Good call on that.

It says serial interface upgrade to mpvi pro is 199.00

I wish when I got my tuner for my GTP that they had this option available, at the time they didn't. Would have swayed me from what I got to that. Now I am kicking myself for getting what I did get because it seems like updates are lacking and they have fewer tables to tune than the HPT.

Only thing holding me back from ordering mine is... the wife seeing the big chunk of change disappear!

Yeah, I've been using LS1Edit for years, and it's a real pile of **** compared to HPTuners, not to mention that you have to pay for updates and to unlock an entire model year costs $999. HPTuners had a competitive upgrade ($250) a while back, and like an idiot I passed on it. Wish I hadn't. This is 10 times better than LS1Edit.

I sat down and figured out that it would have cost me more twice the price of HPTuners to just get the same editing abilities (entire '98 model year, and my '04 GTO).. and there'd still be NO LOGGING!

It was a no brainer.

Got an email from them that says it should ship within 3 to 5 days....

I just got one also. They must have just processed their Friday emails.

I like having the laptop hooked up, then I can view/diagnos log after each run. This is really nice when setting the tune up, after that, then just the log factor is great. On your fuel cutoff, just log injector duty cycle, you'll see it drop off imediately if ya hit the limiter. I have been playing with my tune for days on end, fine tuning things, it's a blast for sure. Trying to log nitrous runs anywhere besides the track is not fun.

Got my shipping notice today. I have downloaded VCM from the web now and can look at the tables. I am about to pee my pants waiting for the thing to get here.

I bought HPtuners last fall when my car was having issues shifting after the swap. I haven't had much time to fart around with it, but hopefully I will soon. definitely quality product! I just need time to learn how to use it better...

DrEvyl

iTrader: (5)

Yeah, but I can do that too. All I gotta do is bring a laptop with me, or use someone else's that has one, and I can download the logs from the MPVI in a few seconds and be looking at them... then I don't have to have the laptop in the car with me. If I was gonna have a wipeout at the track, I'd much rather have that little MPVI box flying around in the car than my brick of a laptop.

I gotta see if I can do that too.... datalogging w/o the laptop would be nice.

I need to look into that more. We tryied to do it for kicks on the Avi-Lade but no luck

You need to have the VCM pro interface... if you have an older interface, you might just need to upgrade it. I have the pro interface, it's an add on to the existing... it rocks, I love it.

Like Rick was saying, it's $199 to update to it for the older users... and $289 + shipping to update it if you just bought the Standard kit.

Hooray my cable will be here Wednesday

Me too. My UPS guy usually comes between 4:30 and 5:00. About one nano second after that I should have my goat licensed.
