I'm guesing you're referring to hp tuners. It's been out for a while. It's just that they are so shitty about making the website nice and informative to potential customers. And it's about time they upgrade the forum software to V-bulletin. I have 2.0 same cost as 1.7 $499

VCM Suite 2.0 is different than our new hardware which people are dubbing as "2.0" as well.

Our VCM Suite 2.0 software is available yes.

Our hardware was delayed due to the addition of Ford and Dodge. We did not want to release a USB LS2/LS2/LS7 interface to customers only to release the same interface a few months later with Ford and Dodge support. We felt that approach was not ideal.

Our new hardware, USB, GM, Ford and Dodge.. all in the same unit, is already out of beta testing and in the production phase.

Also, we do have a new website already built.. and do have vbulletin as well.. It's part of a big master plan that we are still putting into effect.

VCM Suite 2.0 was just the beginning.

You will be able to upgrade to the USB interface from your current interface (stanrdard or EIO) when the USB interface is available.

All upgrades at this time will be replaced with serial interfaces that only support the late model GM lineup (not including LS2/LS7).

Once you have the USB hardware you will be set regardless of our software support status for LS7, Ford or Dodge...

The hardware will support all of those vehicles, it will be the software you will be waiting for at that point in regards to Ford and Dodge.

So.. once you have it, you won't need to send it back.

Have you decided how you were going to do the licensing on Ford/Dodge? For Example will it be similiar to GM currently that you have that Model year and body style when you purchase a license and will I ever be able to put more than 5 models on my cable?

I thought you could already have more than 5 vehicle types as the add ons are just a download....the hardware is locked to your software....vehicle types are locked to software not to hardware

how much is the swap from the standard/ eio to the usb? or is it just an even swap + shipping? Will the EIO upgrades work the same for the new cable?

You can have an unlimited number of licenses on one cable. Where did you get the # of 5?

No USB pricing has been released yet.

I'm waiting too. The GTO just started throwing Inefficient cat codes after the LT's. Waiting on the usb cable. I hope whoever is building them has a crack addiction so they work like the flash.
