Re: New LS1 Tuning will be out soon!! Here's what I got from TC today when I asked about a converter box, cable and being locked to one VIN.
Hi Mike,
Thank you for your e-mail. You will need a special converter to convert the OBDII communications to RS232 the PC can deal with. We're currently working with a couple of companies to provide this converter but if they don't pan out we'll do our own.
Like our current Tuner program, we have no plans to lock the program to a particular VIN.

I just recieved my LS1-edit yesterday, so if my luck continues this one will be cheaper.

Re: New LS1 Tuning will be out soon!! I emailed them this what they said, cannt wait
Thank you for your e-mail regarding the C.A.T.S. Tuner program.
We do not currently support the LS1's but we are now working on an OBDII version of the Tuner program that will . We hope to have it available early next year (Feb./Mar.). We have not yet set the price but we are trying to make it as reasonable priced as possible.
If you have any other questions, or would like additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Best Regards,
TC

Re: New LS1 Tuning will be out soon!! A lot of the FI guys could find this one very useful if you were able to implement Matt Harlan's way of cutting the MAF and corresponding tables (injector constants, VE tables, cylinder volume, ...)in half thus doubling our MAF capabilities (getting around our biggest limitation). This will throw off the spark advance, knock tables, and create other fuel issues but if you could drag them into acceptable ranges...... o the endless possibilities <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> Anyone else heard from these people lately.

Re: New LS1 Tuning will be out soon!! Personally i think Edit is the poop. It's not that hard to learn. At least for all the basic things most people need. Hard time upping limiter? It takes about 2min. to figure that out and i am by no means smarter than avg. on computers/cars.
And it is priced very resonable IMO. $350 or something for HPPIII. And I went in with some buddy's on Edit and it was like $270 per person or something, well under $300 ea for us 4. Plus then you have 4 minds helping figure it out IF you actually have any big troubles. And I highly doubt this program will be less than $300w/cable. And at that price I doubt it will top Edit's capabiities.
Hopefully it will be all everyones hopes for cheaper for your sake. BUT dont knock the best thing we have now. Edit is not a BAD thing or price by any means.

Re: New LS1 Tuning will be out soon!! i agree with Tim, LS1edit is worth its weight in gold. would you rather spend $1000-2500+ on similar programs like FAST, motec,DFI? LS1edit performs the same programs as these high dollar tuning devices. IMO,its gonna be hard to be the price and capability of LS1edit.
Re: New LS1 Tuning will be out soon!! FACTS
I have had LT1 Edit,TC LT1 program and HPP when I had my 94 Formula.
The HPP is over priced junk.$350
The TC program is cheaper and better than the HPP.But would not hold a Candle to LT1 Edit.$72
LT1 edit is a more complex to learn,because you have way more options.Most idiots think there is a button that push and it automatically super tunes your car.$85 bought it on in a GP
OPINIONS
Will the TC program better than LS1 edit,I do not think so.Will it be better than a HPP or Predator,most likely.
If you do want to take the time to learn how to use LS1 edit,TC sign up for a mailing list and ask questions about things,If you do not want to take the time to learn pay somebody like www.pcmsforless.com ($250),Ed Wright($350) or dyno tune it at a good local shop ($500) to tune you car and be done with it.

Re: New LS1 Tuning will be out soon!! I like LS1 edit, but it could be much better, it is nowhere near on par with a system such as F.A.S.T. I do feel LS1Edit is overpriced, and so is the Hypercrap. I think the udgrades should be free downloads, it's a bunch of crap that it isn't. I will be looking forward to the release of this tunercat program, sounds like the possibilities will be expanded and it should add a little competition in the industry.
