I did research on this forum and i will buy the $500.00 software. Looks like the only real way to go. Hopefully its user friendly.
I worked with a windows based EFI system my buddy and I put on his 911

Most folks use hptuners software,,definately need to learn what your doing or youll cause serious damage. Software I have heard is around 500 bucks,, thats what a professional dyno tune cost. Something to consider. I built my stroker and paid a pro to wring the most out of it.
