I'm new to the diagnostic/programming world and was wondering what I should buy. I plan to eventually get gears, so I would like something that I can calibrate my speedometer with in addition to diagnostics and programming. I noticed a lot of people have the ATAP and a MAFT. Is that the way to go or is there a single device that does it all?

I've also heard of the Hypertech Programmer. What does that do and how does it compare to the ATAP and a MAFT?

What is LS1edit?

Thanks!

 

Thanks for the info <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Wickedred,

I found info on LS1 edit at www.carputing.com

 

ATAP: Software & cable that works with a laptop to read your engine computer. Very good diagnostic tool and can read & clear SES codes.

HPP3: Hand held programmer that allows you adjust certain functions, primarily rev limiter, calibrate speedo for gear changes, change shift points, adjust fan on/off temps. It also has Power Tuning that tends to be hit or miss as to whether it helps.

MAFT: Plug in device that allows you to adjust your A/F ratio. Effective for dealing with minor chnages such as those caused by adding headers.

LS1Edit: Software & cable that works with a laptop to read & make changes to your engine computer. Substantially more capability to change and fine tune parameters than a MAFT or HPP3.
