All you need is EFILive (www.greenlightmotorsports.com or www.efilive.com) and a WB02. EFILive includes several comprehensive tutorials to get you tuning right away.

WBO2????Are these programs like LS1edit?? Because I dont like the fact of buying more PCM's. Do they make a program that is just plug and tune with all different cars?

WB02 means a Wideband Oxygen Sensor. The stock oxygen sensors are narrowband voltage and they suck *** for WOT tuning. What you want is either EFILive or HP tuners, along with a good wideband oxygen sensor kit. I think greenlight has a special on EFILive and the wideband together. HPT and EFI allow you to tune by model years.

EFI does not let you tune by model years, only seperate cars via a license. They both will get the job done, but HP tuners is still cheaper and will let you tune by years.

Hptuners
Standard-$499 comes with 8 credits which is enough to tune up to 4 vin locked vehicles & the ability to write custom OS's
Pro-$649 comes with 8 credits which is enough to tune up to 4 vin locked vehicles & the ability to write custom OS's

EFIlive
Personal-$699 comes with 2 vin locked licenses cannot write custom OS's
Commercial-$849 comes with 2 vin locked licenses & the ability to write custom OS's

This is all pretty much covered in the stickies at the top where it says "Read me first"
