HP Tuners Questions.... 1) for X-Edit users (or total news to tuning), is it way easier to dial in a cam, like the whole IAC settings, etc???
2) is it easier to setup SD tuning than Edit?
3) using the EIO, will it read the signal from my LM-1 WB Sensor? And does it read the Dynojet WBC?
4) currently I tuned my car with Edit (what a PITA)...Do I need to reflash the PCM before reading it with HPT or can I just read the values in it, and make the necessary adjustments from current tune?
5) are there as many connectivity issues as Edit has? Those not knowing, it seems Edit decides whether or not it wants to connect based off its current mood!
6) This is locked to the model year, but can be used on two different models, as in I have a 2000 Camaro but I could also use it on a 2000 Y body, or truck?
I need to get my own tuning software and HPT has been at the top of the list for some time, especially since it has the scanner. I am shared on a LS1 Edit cable, which for some LS1Edit reason, it doesnt want to recognize my car suddenly, hey the VIN is still there though *Ughhh* and I will soon be moving away from other cable owners so any help making this decision easier is greatly appreciated.
