EFILive's New Scan/Flash Tool If these guys deliver on their advertising, they may just set the standard for Scanning/Tuning software.
I wonder how many of you plan to go with them. It seems close, since they announced beta testing soon:

Besides a price break for EFILive users, I like it that they will use the USB port.
Also, a BIG plus is it comes with two, yes, 2 licenses for the VIN-Locked version. I will have two PCMs for my car and don't have to BUY an extra license.
(I had to buy two licenses to support a backup PCM, with LS1Edit). Of course, it will read all supported PCM's unlimitedly.
People with two LS1's of the same supported PCM will not have to buy an extra license. If ever your PCM were toast, you will not have to wait for or pay for an extra license to flash your new replacement PCM.
These guys act like they are us.
Part of outstanding customer service is giving the customer what they want.

Looks good on there being a few competive programmers available for the ls1 vehicles.
I wonder how this one will perform in relation to the ones available, and compare to the ones coming soon

EFILive is the premier scanner IMHO and I'm sure the tuner/programmer will rock also.
The million dollar question is will they support the 97/98 PCMs? You and I need that or it looks like we have to stick with edit no? I would love to have their editor, cause I have efilive already and would like to just have on cable for everything plus my LM-1 will be able to hook into it
That's only if they support the 98,

They will support it... they've worked out a solution to the "grey-headed step-child" PCM we have. The info is on their site. At first I thought they were having a 3rd-Party vendor handle it for us, but I misunderstood their explanation.
97/98 LS1's are in.

Yeah, if you've spent any time at all comparing the current scanner packages, it's easy to see that EFILive comes out on top. Their customer service and professionalism makes them an easy pick. One look at the screen shots of FlashScan on their website and it's clear that their package will undoubtely premier as the best tuning tool. Based on how well they listen to customers, I suspect that FlashScan will continue to get better over time... the guys at EFILive try very hard to fulfill feature requests, etc., so the future of the product looks to be very bright.
