Default LS1 edit or HP tuner?

Ok, the mail order thing is OK, but, I need this thing tuned perfect. I'm looking into getting either LS1edit or HP tuner. Which one should I go with? I can't even figure out where to buy edit, so, i'm leaning toward HP.

HPTuners has more features (Ive heard), better customer service, its own message board, and a built in scan tool.

I think Edit can be found at www.carputing.com but not sure of HP.
Most opinions lean toward HP Tuners especially for first timers. The scan tool and customer support seems to top notch for HP.
OK, I convinced myself for HP. Now can anyone tell us where to get it? Sorry to hijack but I had the same questions.

I've looked at both of the programmers, and HPTuners does look a little cleaner. If I was fixing to buy a new tuner package, it would be HPTuners.

Just in case you're lazy ... www.hptuners.com

green, what do you think about it, don't you have HPTuners for your 'hoe?

I've used both
For me the Hp tuners interface is much nicer
there is also a handy unit conversion tab that helps quite a bit
Not too mention a Scan tool which ia must when tuning
I own edit aswell
I'd buy Hp tuners again in a heartbeat !

If you get a custom tune with ls1 edit can you use hptuners? Or will there be a conflict when using hptuners?
