HP Tuners was my choice and I don't regret the decision, but I've only just started with it. The licensing options for each brand of tuning software are all a little bit different, but HPT's credits system, while possibly confusing at times, seemed more logical to me than EFI Live's. If you like tinkering with things and enjoy using a laptop to tweak your car's engine, either of the options will be interesting to use; at least it is for me. Daunting at first to realize there are more than 500 tables in the stock PCM for tuning everything realtime, but amazing that there is so much to control to make an engine perform under all the myriad of conditions it may see. I think the main issue at play here is the slick, fast, easy method that EFI Live has come up with for switching from everyday tune to nitrous tune at the flip of a switch or 2.
Of course, you can do all the same tuning changes with HP Tuners, but i don't know exactly how you could make it so slick aka flip of a button. But i bet there is some way. Anyone know?You can make it to when the nitrous kicks in, it automatically pulls the timing, based on how much load is on the motor. This way you dont have to flip an extra switch to make sure your nitrous tune is on. Run around in your NA tune, when you hit the jug, the computer will automatically pull timing. You can find a comparison between the two here We offer up to 4 C5 Corvette licenses with your initial purchase for at a lower cost, Real Time Tuning utilizing the stock pcm, lower tunershop package pricing, credit upgrades, we have a very attractive GUI thats also very simple to navigate through.

Are You Ready to Tune? This website is dedicated to helping you learn how to tune your own LT1 car computer (PCM), using the popular and inexpensive TunerCat software as the model. Start with the basics, like removing the skip-shift for you six-speed owners, or accommodating for the larger wheels or different rear gear ratios you've installed.
Then we'll progress to altering the timing and fuel curves, to get better throttle response, torque, and even MPG! Click to see what I have so far! Much of it can be applied to other engine/PCM types, including TPI and LS1. No Interest in DIY, or Only One-Time Changes? If you don't have the time, money or desire to do this on your own, but would still like some changes made to your PCM, I also offer a very inexpensive tuning service for the 1986-2003 OBDI/OBDII TBI/TPI/LT4/LT1/L99/LS1 PCMs. This includes the Camaro IROC/Z28/SS, Firebird Formula and Trans Am, Corvette, Chevy Caprice & Impala SS, Cadillac Fleetwood, and Buick Roadmaster (including the 4.3L L99 engines)! Just click the button above to learn more!
Postal or Email Tuning If you have no ability to tune yourself, my main service allows you to postal mail me your PCM for tuning, for just $85 OBDI LT1 / $90 OBDII LT1 / $100 LS1 for, or only $165 OBDI LT1 / $175 OBDII LT1 / $185 LS1 for, or for your '92-'93 LT1, have me mail you a new tuned chip for $75 or $125. All prices include free USPS Priority Mail return shipping and one free retune! But, if you have your own tuning software, and are looking for help or a place to start, I also offer tuning, using your own PCM image, for only $125 OBDI / $150 OBDII / $175 LS1, including three free fine-tunes!
Lastly, for 1994-2003 flash-based PCMs, I can to load my tunes yourself as well as data-log your vehicle while driving, so that I can tune it completely through email, for one week: 1986-1993 TPI/TBI/LT1 PCM ($225), 1994-1995 LT1 PCM ($225), 1996-1997 LT1 PCM ($225), and 1997-2003 LS1/Vortec PCM ($250). I had 99 Corvette tuned by Solomon, and am very impressed with the effort and attention he gave me.
He provided several tunes based upon my data logging. As for the Corvette, it was also a beast to start with at stock settings, but it now has a throatier exhaust note, more even and powerful acceleration, and noticeably quicker throttle response. I would recommend his service to anyone looking for a precise and custom tune, with fast, friendly, and helpful service along the way. Mike Brookfield, CT May, 2011.

By beginner, I mean someone that is mechanically inclined, and is technically savy (software engineer) but has never tuned anything other than carburated cars. I've done all of the mechanical/electrical work on my vehicle (myself): Engine a) supercharger (procharger/A&A) a) heads b) cam c) intake d) exhaust (headers, TI, wideband) e) Self ported 80mm BBK TB f) Nitrous System g) Fuel injectors, fuel pump Drivetrain a) Z06 3.42 b) Yank SS 3600 Body a) ZO6 brake ducts b) Mini-Tub (NOT using LPE kit) Interior a) Guage Pod - Cobalt Electric Boost - Cobalt Electric Fuel Pressure - PLX Devices A/F I now need to tune my vehicle but I'm not sure of the best software (most user friendly) to go with (EFI live, HP Tuners, or LS Edit)? I'm hoping for the price of the software I'm not just presented with a bunch of tables to edit with magic numbers, but rather something with a good user interface, somewhat intuitive, and very good customer support. I don't want to drop $700 bills and then I'm on my own. I have the PLX devices wideband installed, so I should be good to go. Any advice would be much appreciated!
Looks to me like all the software is pretty much the same, it's just a matter of what's your preferred page appearance. Other than stuff that can be done with a DiabloSport Trinity (the only box I found that will work with my '04 CE Vert's & gear/intake/exhaust mods), it's all about fine-tuning air-fuel, air-fuel, and air-fuel. NOW, how about more ways to monitor things, such as with this 'modular' setup? (Yeah, I stole their hype line.) I have the new 'dedicated' PC laptop coming tomorrow, and was almost going to pop for HP Tune, then I saw the above. Any opinions, anyone using a modular system?
I think we all NEED to know the best answers. Best regards, Zeek Duff Longmont, CO. Interesting, newbie on the C-5 front,still have a C-3 that I can make sing, but tuning is all new I understand,some of the lingo, but never did it. I'm going to Carlisle this year and heard of the $99 tune up. Is this worth it or do I wait and buy the 'equip' to tune it myself, been a mechanic for 30yrs but not on new stuff, the learning curve begins, I prefer to keep the car looking stock, but want a few more ponies.
Thanks for the info, looking to hear more info for an 'old horse' Ron I have an 04 a4. Interesting, newbie on the C-5 front,still have a C-3 that I can make sing, but tuning is all new I understand,some of the lingo, but never did it.

Thanks for the info, looking to hear more info for an 'old horse' Ron I have an 04 a4I think a bunch of us are in the same boat Ron, give us a carb, plugs, points, and a timing light, and we can make the old V8s sing opera. But, this stuff is just a sh.tload of parameters that combine themselves at various RPMs to yield the best overall performance. I get it, but it sure is hard to read all that little bitty print, and it's gonna take me awhile. I'm starting with a new PC laptop and a DiabloSport Trinity, because however I end up with a tune or set of tunes for different purposes, the Trinity can store them and load them at will, then dump the stock tune back in for an emissions test or something I need to have done at a dealer.
Free Ls1 Tuning Software
I AM going to get the full-bore HP Tuners kit, but not until I understand a little more about it. My mods are modest here at first, a 3.42 rear end is going in next week (I hope, it's sitting in a box in my garage), a complete VaraRam intake, and a set of SLP PowerFlo mufflers. The Trinity will let me retune quickly as I add items, and an A&A blower will go on sometime before next Spring, then I'll pay for a dyno tune by the guru here who will install the A&A. That tune can then be saved in the Trinity, as well. I hope I'm on the right track, but it makes sense to me at the moment anyway. Been a long time since I messed with a Windoze box, but setting up this new HP laptop went pretty fast, and it updated the Trinity to the latest firmware, & had it done while I was reading how to start doing it.
I think whatever you do personally depends on your ability to take on a fairly steep learning curve for the HP Tuners or any of them, including the other 2-3 main softwares, because they're all going to deal with all the same long list of sensors and parameters. Since.I. needed something immediately, I went with the Trinity, a new PC laptop (I'm a Mac guy, and none of this stuff runs on a Mac), and we'll take it one step at a time. Regardless, in the end, you're going to have a sizable investment, and if you're going to pay for tunes, IMO it's a good idea to have a way to restore the car to stock, and then reload your tune(s), whenever for whatever reason. Then when you learn to use the software, you can experiment, quickly put the car back to something you know at least runs well, and keep going and growing. I still need to know more about the 'wideband' everyone seems to feel is necessary, but I was reading about connecting it to an AC wire and losing AC while you're tuning.
I don't think I like that idea. Can someone please tell us exactly what the wideband is & does that makes it worth the trouble & extra $$? Best regards.z.

Best regards.zYou need the wideband O2 sensor so that you can accurately read air/fuel ratio at WOT. You need an extra bung welded into your exhaust. I went with the PLX Devices Wideband setup and DM5 gauge so that I can see a/f as I drive.

I'd like to leave anything necessary for tuning installed all the time, WITH my AC working. Is the PLX Devices wideband sensor better than the LC1, and could you put your gauge in an A Pillar Pod along with a boost gauge or is there tubing to connect it? Now we need to know why EFI Live is so much more money than HP Tuners.?
I see there's a forum dealer who's running a sale for either software and a LC1 Wideband, I think I'm going to ask him which he thinks is best as soon as I send this. I hope I get a good answer and not just the one he makes the most profit on, and I'll contact a few other stores, too. I want the best and saving a couple hundred bucks isn't worth not having the absolute best tools for the job, tools that are only going to be bought once. But, the cheaper tool could also be the better tool, too. I'll let you know what he says in answer to your original question (& the other stores, too). Next week, I'm taking my car over to a major Corvette dealer fairly close to me (about 20 mi), because it keeps throwing a 10-PCM P0410 code = AIR System flow problem (I have the GM-published 2004 Corvette 'bible,' 2 volumes the size of Chicago phone books), so I want that fixed, and the car tuned for this altitude having come from 1,100 ft above Sea Level MN and sitting in a shed most of it's first 7 years of life (1,316 mi when I got it home 4 weeks ago) to 5,700 ft and getting driven pretty hard (almost 200 new miles) by me.
I called for the appt a few minutes ago, be checked in early Tuesday morning. I decided this last night; I want the car 'GM Certified' as good to go in the Rockies, before I do ANY new Drive Train mods. Also, by waiting to save my Base Tune until they're done with it, I can load that 'stock tune' back in IF I have to take it back over there for any reason, and they'll see what they expect to see, AND I can pass emissions.
Tested to comply with fcc standards. I should prb'ly have them check out and install the ZO6 rear end pod I got last week, too. This will also give me time to research the software some more, before laying out close to another $1k added to the $600 for the 14' HP laptop & $599 for the Trinity, AND I'll be confident everything is right at the start of my future engine mods.
BUT, then hopefully, I'll have everything I'll ever need for tuning my car and maybe even the several new TORCA (Top Of The Rockies Corvette Association) members w/C5s that I met last week. (I have a little generous spot.) Looks like a lot of us old farts are buying their first Vettes, and are also interested in exactly the same tools and mods. But, I do love it!
Thanks for sharing what you have done so far m'man, and asking a very intelligent question of the forum members, too. Best regards.z Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.Stefan Glock. Well, I had a good conversation with Shawn from Lethal Racing today. I had called him yesterday & left word, & he called back, today. The gist of the conversation was; which is better, HP Tuners or EFI Live? The bottom line, EFI Live is the better software.
The reason is simple, they keep it up-to-date, while HP Tuners hasn't had an update in several years, and gets unstable on some newer cars. So, you get what you pay for it appears, if you're only looking for user-friendly and sticking with tuning older Vettes or your C5, then HP Tuners might be a little easier to learn. But, if you get good at tuning, you're gonna want to tune others' rides, and at least in my case, I'd want to be able to tune the C6s around here. There isn't a lot going on in the immediate vicinity, everything/everybody is 30 min to 1 hour drive away. Anyway, I think I'm going to go with EFI Live on Shawn's recommendation, he uses both, and to me, he made EFI Live sound like the much smarter tool in the long run.

I still have a couple of connections to make, but I doubt I'll learn any different from what I learned today. I'll report back if I do, but I think my mind's made up. Of course, YMMV. Best regards.z.
