Default I have LS1 Edit....should I get HP tuners?

Just curious what everyone's opinion is. I bought LS1 edit awhile back. I used it to get my car pretty close. I'm still no master tuner but I was considering getting HP tuners now. Is it that much better/easier then edit or should I just stick with what I have.

LS1Edit can get the job done in many instances, but there are many advantages with HPTuners. An integrated scanner is worth a lot in my opinion. No more separate scanner, downloading data, creating spreadsheets, etc. The custom OS's are very nice feature as well. Plus, I think in today's world you will simply get much more support from HPTuners than LS1Edit. JMO.

Only stick with ls1edit if money is a SIGNIFICANT issue. If you can afford to, by all means the change to better software is worth it. Just the peace of mind of being able to do calibration only rewrites instead of a full pcm rewrite is a big help (no more fried pcm's).
