Default Auto Tap OR LS1 Edit

Which do you prefer ls1 edit or auto tap? Can auto tap do as many adjustments as ls1 can?

It's an AND deal; they are complementary functions
(ATAP for scanning, Edit for modifying). Unfortunately
there's no do-all setup let alone one that beats them
on combined price.

what jimmy said. you cant do one without the other. you can get edit but without a scannning tool theres no way to no what to edit. and with a scanning too you can log data but theres no way of changing it. well you can with efi w/ the bi-directional controls but the changes arent perminent.

figure about 800-1k+ for a whole tuning setup; atap/efi, edit, and laptop if you dont already have one.

AT (and the LS1/LS6 specific) EFILive are tools that READ the engine. EFILive can make TEMPORARY overrides while connected, but the PCM returns to OEM upon disconnect.

See www.EFILIVE.com and www.AUTOTAP.com for more product details.

IMHO, if you have an LS1, get EFILive!
