I am planning on reopening my automotive machine shop soon, and plan on doing performance work, so I may as well break down and get an HP Tuner and start learning on my own truck.

I just wish there was a company that provided hand held calibration equipment that didn't screw us to tears just to do something simple like change gears!

I am checking into the Hypertech Speedometer Calibrator, but if it VIN locks up on ONE truck and think they will be getting $180 from me they have lost their damn mind!

Your tuner might even do it for free since you were recently there. Give him a call

All tuning suites use credits of some sort. The tune is lic to that vehicle but not locked unless the tuner locks it them self's with a custom key.

Where are you located?

I am in East Texas and have decided to go ahead and get an HP Tuner ...... so I guess I will be a major pain in the butt over at the HP forum.

I would still like to find a speedometer calibrator that I can use on other vehicles and that doesn't cost $100 just to calibrate the Speedometer like all those I have found so far!
