That blows.

Super sucks. I bought one when I was using the PT and had a few issues flashing. Figured a $25 insurance policy wasnt hard to swallow.

 

[EmersonHart13]

bwahaha, i remember when i accidentally unplugged my laptop from the car while i was uploading a tune, man that sucked.

ohh wait... no it didn't, because hptuners can recover the pcm when that happens.

people still use that pile dhp thing?

 

[PANDA]

Kevin I have a spare PCM if you need it.

people still buy them for $300+!
it's outdated, limited parameters, and very slow compared to HPT. but you have to use what you have

I'd spend the $200 difference. I wonder why nobody has figured out open source tuning for gm cars yet.

I bought my tactrix cable for $180. Software is free and better than hptuners.

Keith from HPT said that HPT was going to be cheap and the cats ass. Then it came out for $500. Watching him and Charles go at it was funny.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

They moved half a block from Cir in buffalo grove. I drive by all the time. It's good stuff just not $500 good. I us romraider and it's free and much better than hptuners. You should dl it and I'll send you one of my tunes. It's badass. Be the first to adapt the Gp to use it. You and panda will make hundreds.

And that is for the base model. The Pro Suite is $650.

Yes....it works fine.

(Ever since I wired the car to isolate the PCM durng writes, i've never bricked a PCM. For those DHP diehards, I can provide info if you like. )

Kevin...keep that PCM...if we are ever at a meet in the future, I can try to recover it with my offboard adapter. Will you be at Lukes on Thursday?
