Default Quick HPTuner question

Is there a limit to how many people can go in on a group purchase of HPTuners? What else is needed besides the software and laptop?

Thanks

no limit, but just keep in mind you only get one piece of hardware to share amongst the people you go in with. You get 8 credits to share total which in most cases is enough for 4 vin locked licenses.

Credits are 50 apiece, and for f-bodies you can get a license for a specific year for 6 credits or 300 bucks. If you know a lot of people with 01 and 02 cars for example, it would pay to get the unlimited yearly licenses.

Thats exactly why I'm thinking of buying a copy. Seems like I'm needing to change something all the time. Could get expensive having a shop do it.

Thanks for the help everyone!!

what is the difference between the $500 and $650 version of hptuners is it worth it to pay the extra money? is it possible to upgrade later ?


VCM Suite GM Std - $499
VCM Suite GM Pro - $649 (Enhanced I/O) <---what does this mean?
