Default Who likes HP tuner / Edit??

Is HP Tuners so much better than Edit that its worth buying rather than upgrading? I already have AutoTap . I want to start tuning my own rig and Ive heard that HP was a little easier for the beginner!!

HP tuners all the way. If ls1 edit priceing struciture does not change, I don't see them being in business much longer.

If my PCM was originally tuned with Edit would It cause a problem the first time I try and use HP? Will I have to do a complete re-tune or can I pick up with HP where I left off with Edit?

HPT can read an Edit editted PCM just fine... as long as the other tuner didn't lock it on you...

I love HPT... Been using it since May. I'm waiting to get my V1.5 wideband interface right now. It's been quite easy to use, and it's only getting better.

Love the HPT myself...especially the scanner tool being included ( unlike Edit ).
Pound for pound, HPT IMHO.

it's by far a better deal and if you have a newer vehicle it's nicer to be able to program it from the port inside the truck.
