You have the option of HPT or EFI live for custome tuning. And you also have the choice of canned tunes. not the best for doing long distance tuning for F/I

another form of tuning software, its like HPT but they have unlocked more option as far as haveing a virtual VE table and some stuff with the VVT. Might make it eaiser to tune for boost because of the Virtual VE tables.

This right here is a very good read about what EFI Live has to offer over HP Tuners right now.

To tune for the S/C that you are talking about you would want the Pro box anyways. $50 dollar differance then

Ok let me rephrase. It makes life a lot simpler If you can log afr and use the %error histogram and a couple other tricks I have learned along the way.
you could always configure the hpt regular and use the as press switch for your input make sure you disable the compressor. But why mess around when you could just get the pro.

We have many resellers if purchasing direct from us is not an option, anyone from intense to pcmforless to dynojet to STS stocks or resells our product, some at a discount.

Otherwise http://www.hptuners.com/order.php is your best bet.
