Maybe a 2bar operating system for your 98 Corvette? It's all here and MORE!

- 04-06 Saturn Ion Redline 2.0L s/c *

VCM Suite now supports over 350 vehicle types! Never before has there been so much flexibility in a single GM tuning package. Tune your drag race monster, your daily driver and your buddies truck in a single package.

Once again, we would like to thank all our valued customers, forum moderators, beta testers and contributors who help us continue to innovate and deliver new features to the tuning market. The new features don't stop at this release either, we already have some more BIG announcements planned for the next release!

Cobalt SS & Saturn Ion Redline 2.0L s/c (LSJ engine)
HP Tuners brings the first factory PCM tuning tool to the LSJ community. It's time to realize the full potential of your combination at the track and correct any issues related to specific intake, pulley, fuel system or other modifications. Tune spark, fuel, torque management, boost control and other important parameters related to getting the most from your combo at the track. VCM Suite includes comprehensive scanner capability that is essential to understanding your engines current state of tune and the MPVI Pro interface includes analog inputs and outputs to interface external Wideband O2 controllers, boost gauges and other devices.

Tuning the LSJ has just taken a giant leap forward!



Inline 4/5/6 Truck Support
Hot on the trail of the 2.2 and 2.4L inline-4 cylinder vehicle support, HP Tuners brings the inline-4/5/6 cylinder trucks into the mix! Comprehensive tuning and scanning support is available from the 02 Trailblazer I6 right through to the 06 Hummer H3 I5. Combine this with the existing Gen3 and Gen4 V8, L4 cars and V6 cars and trucks and you have a tuner package that can tune more GM vehicles than anything on the market. Time to unleash the power of that I6!



VATS Delete for Gen4 V8
This release includes VATS delete capability for all supported Gen4 V8 ECM's (E40/E38). An absolute must for a Gen4 swap into a hot rod or firing some life into LS7 crate motor projects.

2bar VCM Enhancement for 97/98 Gen3 V8
HP Tuners is pleased to announce the general release for the 2 bar Speed Density enhancement for 97/98 LS1 vehicles previously released in v2.1.9 beta.

How does this work? is it user friendly? what happens if the End user has not alot of knowledge in engine dynamics? easy to learn?

Is there a base tune? can a tune be made for track, street etc...and switched at the click of a couple buttons?

i'll try to answer the questions in one post.

The software is very user friendly, but you do need the basic understanding of air/fuel/spark and common sense goes a very long way!

Note exactly sure what you meant by interface upgrades but we used to sell our 1st generation cable (black box that converts your laptop talk to car talk) that had a serial interface to the PC. We have now release our 2nd generation cable that is a USB interface. All the features listed above with the * beside can only be used on the USB cable which we call the "MPVI".

Now, the MPVI also comes in 2 types a "Standard" version and a "Pro" version. From a software perspective both interfaces are identical, the only differnce is the Pro version has external inputs/out puts for connecting analog devices such as Wideband O2 controllers etc. *and* anlso has a few buttons for our upcoming black-box datalogging feature. This will let you scan the veicle WITHOUT requiring the laptop in the vehicle.

You can order directly from our website with payment via Paypal. In a month or so we will be annoucning our new website that will also have credit card facilities.

Hope that helps!

This is something I'd be interested in for sure, but I'm unsure that I would know what I was doing.

You can scan with the PC no problem this is the regular scanning mode we have supported since day 1.

However, for the blackbox datalogging not quite yet. This will be in the next release. We didn't quite have enough time to complete enough testing to fit it in this release - with all the features that just came. We're looking within the next 30 days though for sure, i expect public beta will begin probably in the next couple of weeks. All software upgrades are free so if you purchased the MPVI Pro cable then it's as simple as downloading and installing the new software when it becomes available.

You can see the Record and Stop buttons on the interface here:

http://www.hptuners.com/help/vcm_sca...connecting.htm

Basically you'll be able to setup the cable when it's connected to the PC to scan the things you are intersted in, then leave your PC at home go for a drive and scan the data. Then reutrn to your PC and upload the logs you saved in the cable back to the PC for viewing. You can store multiple logs and over an hours worth of data in the cable itself before you have to upload or erase and start again.

We are always adding to our software, either generic functionality or vehicle specific. Typically we release a new version every month or so.
