From an EFILive reseller . I would say its the best money I ever spent on my truck. It's a very steap learning curve, but if your willing to take the time and learn it, you will not regret it. Don't expect to just buy it not knowing anything about tuning and open it up have your car tuned in a couple hours though. It take a bit of learning.

You can buy it from them www.efilive.com or one of their resellers. Regarding the learning curve, it steap and tuning is tuning. learning on a stock car isn't necessarily any easier than a cammed car.

The manual is included in the download on the website. You can call me tommorrow if you have any questions about the software. I can answer any that you have. As far as a demo, you can download it, or you can drive over to me in Warsaw indiana and i can show you the software first hand.

Take a trip to Florida, and go do the Disney thing as well. Or shoot over to Jesse and he will hook you up in short order.
