If they'd do a gp I go ahead and buy it. If not I'll probably just wait till efilive releases their software. They are supposed to give a pretty good discount for current efilive users.

I'd be in too. They are $499 for one car $899 for two, and I think $2999 for 3 or more. check out the link on the right. I just heard of them yesterday.

The nice thing about them is that it is not VIN specific. Just has to be the same year/style car. For example, 5 of us in So Cal chipped in and bought one for the 2002 F-Body. It cost us $110 each including shipping and now we can all use the program since we all have '02 F-Bods. It helps that we are all friends and live within 30 minutes max of each other too

My suggestion is to find 3 or 4 people near you that you know and can trust, and that have the same year F-Bod, and then buy one Tuner together........we let our most trusted pal handle the money/purchase and it showed up last night. I am going over there tonight to get some data logged in and hopefully figure out some things to do

Good luck to ya all.

Just remember (sorry if you already knew this) but the cars HAVE to be the same year. The program is only for one year of whatever style car.......example being; ours is for 2002 F-Bods.......just don't want to see anyone get screwed over or misunderstand what I say/type. Good luck.

that's per model/year ... I highly doubt there will be a GP on HP Tuners... if you want it cheaper then your best bet is to get a bunch of peops together w/the same year/model car in your area and chip in...

HP Tuners is year/model locked... so if you buy it for a 2000 F-Body... it will work on ANY 2000 F-Body ...

500 dollars for a tuner and scanner.. and soon an interface to a wideband sensor (not sure how much more that upgrade will be... but if you have a wideband sensor... it'll be worth it) seems reasonable to me... Autotap is 250 bux alone and it just logs (and the software was written by a bunch of idiots... at least that's my belief...)

$500 is a great price for for what you get with hp tuners. Maybe just free shipping? I just need a little push to take the plunge into the tuner pit.

I think the fact that it doesnt lock to vin is better than any gp they could give.

Rev Xtreme would be interested in a GP. We currently use LS1edit. And to switch over to HP Tuner, it would cost us well over $10,000. A GP would be nice.
