Tuning and Deleting Codes

I just bought an 02 Z28, I've worked on cars my whole life - dad's shops - but, we are new to the whole "flashing" part of the PCM. We have multiple scan tools all read codes, give lab scopes - work great - but none of them delete and flash codes. Will the HP Tuner delete the codes the way I want them to.

Thanks for any help/info

Codes I want deleted mostly are the AIR codes for now, just to get past the OBDII plug-in - in PA you can't do emmissions on your own car . . so I'm stuck

Read more...the price varies. You can only tune two vehicles with the $499 deal. If you need to tune more you need to spend more.

Actually...your initial purchase comes with 8 credits all of our American GM vehicles are priced at only 2 credits each meaning you can tune up to 4 vehicles without spending another dime.

Ok so I bought mine December 19, 2004, two vehicles. So I can add two more free of charge?

No you didn't.... you got two years UNLIMITED VINs, not 2 cars; at least that's how mine was a month before you.

What?
6 of one half dozen, how ever you put it when I ordered it I had to pick two vehicles.
I picked 2002 f-bodies, and 2004 GTO. Yea I know I can tune every 2002 F-Body, and 2004 GTO on the planet. Not just two cars. Don't take it so damn literal.

I think foff has a comparison on the HPT forums of pro vs basic... but in general the pro is the best option.

Includes black box logging (you can log without having the laptop turned on or even connected), and inputs/outputs which make it much easier to interface with sensors such as wideband O2 sensors

Be aware that their support for Ford and Dodge has not been released yet. They are supposedly close on the Ford stuff.
