#1: WOULD YOU BUY THE SOFTWARE IF IT COST _$X_
#2: DO YOU HAVE A '05-'06 L61?


Ok, this is a pretty important question. We all know that Vince at Trifecta can tune all of the L61's and that LS2edit can tune the '07+ L61s. But how about the '05-'06 L61 crowd?

Basically, I'm just trying to figure out what kind of market exists for people who would rather tune their own ecotecs whenever they liked instead of having Vince do it for them.

 

i have the old cable so could we get a discount?

 

i believe so, yea, but i cant say anything for sure.

 

I don't really have the desire to learn to tune myself any longer but it would be a nice option to have...

 

I would love to do my own tuning. I voted

 

ugh...people need to get in here and vote, even if they vote no.

 

Are you asking that Vince make his software available to customers, or are you suggesting an alternate piece of software?

I think the wording of the original post is just a little off.

 

im figuring out if Vince (or anyone else for that matter) has a market to sell to. He has been tinkering with the idea of releasing DIY tuning software

 

hes already doing it i thought.. thats what kyle said.

 

Yeah I heard the same. If it was for me tuning only my car I would pay 2-300, if I could do the other Balts too I can see 4-500 being pheasble

 

well, lets just say im not too sure how much he's okay with telling people, but its not a for sure thing

 

It would mean taking off the training wheels andthen going to operate a shuttle to me... But I can't say I don't want it.

 

well hes already testing it out so i dont see why he wouldnt use it

 

he isnt testing it yet... he's just made the software, but I beieve all he did was make it slightly user friendly...or maybe he didnt. Maybe all he's got is the same interface he uses.

 

If I could have some tune me locally I would definitely prefer that so I would say its a plus...our own little HP Tuners

 

I would definately jump on having tuning software.

It would be good to be able to learn how to tune and/or have someone local do dyno tunes.

 

To be clear, I would purchase!

 

im talking with SCT about getting their software released...they should give me a timeframe soon

 

Trifecta will probably be a more likely company to get it going, though it would be cool if SCT got in too. Ive been watching SCT make false promises for a long time on here though, so im a bit skeptical of whether or not they'll actually follow through with what they say.

 

Either way, through SCT or Trifects, a DIY tuning solution would be awesome to have.

 

last i heard from vince is that hes working on selling it so we can tune it our selves.
and it will be good for all L61 cobalts 05-07

 

SCT just added 05/06 cobalt support to their software....we will be able to tune our cars very soon...i just got an email from the CEO that confirmed this

 

Time to start saving some pennies. And just before the holidays too. grrr


Well, I'll just have to tell everyone that their gifts will have to wait till next year.

 

yes.....i need to get the head fixed and get a new turbo before i buy this software....but i will def be buying it in the near future

 

Well the answer to this for me is hell yes, i have been waiting on this to happen. Vince talked about it alittle when i got my tune from him.

What vince does is great but i feel if i can use the software myself, the tune could be dialed in a bit more and i could also take the car to a dyno...

I can't see paying more than $300 for the software and cable though. Now if i have the ablility to tune other cars i may pay a bit more...

Shitty part is, i already purchased a tune from vince, he did an awesome job, but i will be pushing things up a bit in the near future and will have to purchase another tune. I've been trying to wait too see if this came thru, i will really be pissed if i pay again, then he releases this software...
