vcm suite is the package. yep, $500 is a pretty penny, but once you learn to use it well, it pays for itself

exactly. $500 isn't much considering how much control you gain with it.

When you look at that it does seem kind of high but when tou look at the hypertech costing 300-350 new it's not that bad of a deal.

Yup .. $510 shipped. To buy mine, I sold my CAGS defeat, my Hypertech Programmer, my MAF Translator, and I think something else ... all things that I would no longer need after I got HP Tuners. After selling the stuff, I had $450 cash, so I only had to add $60 out of my pocket.

Yeah, it's the best deal out right now for tuning. You get the ability to log and edit all with one package! You don't have to swap cables or anything to go from logging to uploading a new tune.

yup 500 bux ain't cheap but this software and cable is well worth it... the scanning software is awesome... it rivals the best IMHO, and the flashing software is foolproof... no dead PCMs and the editing software is nicely laid out and the included Help file explains all the fields very nicely
