i have the LS1 edit dyno tune on my truck right now and i just bought a laptop so i was wondering if anyone could tell me where i could fine the LS1 edit software and component to connect truck to computer.... i know alot of people like EFI live but i just dont want to spend another 600 bucks on tuning package especially since i dont even know how, i just want to learn....if the LS1 edit stuff is just as much then im just gonna say forget about it and let MTI do all my dyno tuning for me since the guy they have there is very good at it. thanks for anyone's input on this

 

bump!

 

You can get the software and cable from "carputing.com".

This will cost about the same as HP Tuners or EFI Live, around $500.00.

There are no freebies when it comes to tuning.

 

so would you guys recommend getting the LS1 edit software and cable because i already have that tune programmed in and i could edit from where its at now? i probably wont do this for a while due to tight funds and wanting a new cam and MTI will edit for cheap

 

As long as the tuner didn't lock the PCM you can use any tuning software you'd like...if the PCM has been locked by the tuner only HPTuners will read and write it (has something to do with the way EFI Live and LS1Edit read/write the pcm)

 

What MTI did was tune it with LS1edit,that is not what tune is in there,that is what it was tuned with.You can use HPTuners,tunercat and EFIlive to tune it as long as it is not locked and I do not think MTI locks them.If you want I can tell you if it is locked or not if you come see me!I live in Katy also.Let me know

 

i just didnt know if thee way LS1 edit rewrites the stuff was different than the other models, ill look into carputing, silly dad gave up on UPS this evening and then they decided to come to deliver the laptop and now i have to wait until monday. sucks. i could have sworn they delivered saturday??

 

instead of LS1edit man I would get HPTuners.HPTuners is so much better and user friendly.It is some very nice software I promise.Alot on here will tellyou the same also

 

ill probably look into that or EFI live if i ever decide i have 600 bucks to spend on tuning software and electronics instead of some go-fast stuff

 

IMO I would get HPTuners over efilive but that is just me.HPtuners is awesome
