I'll admite, that I haven't tried this product yet, but I will to reprogram the PCM, when I trade out the 2.2 for a 4.3 in my truck. So let us know what is more user friendly.

have you ever used HPTuners?

No, but I had looked at there web site. The two biggest faults I see with their setup, they lock you in the number of vehicles you can program, without paying them more money and they charge for their updates, after 6 months. I don't do it for a living, but if somebody asks me to alter their maps or change a couple of switches or constants in a table, I don't want to have to go and buy a new license. TC has treated me well with their CATS Tuner package and unless something really jumps out at me, I think I'll buy their new one. Don't take this to mean, I have anything against HPTuner, but little brand loyalty, is something I think TC, deserves.

i own both. i have HP Tuners and Tuner Cat. HP Tuners doesn't vin lock or limit the number of vehicles you do. on top of that HP Tuners comes with it's own scanning/logging software. by the end of june i expect to own every def. file from Tunercat that's available. currently i have all 96-05 trucks in Tunercat. after i finish buying the Tunercat stuff i plan to do the same with HP Tuners.

I just looked according to their web site pricing structure, you have to pay for additional vehicles

VCM Suite Pricing Structure
VCM Suite Pro
2 Vehicle Types: $499
First 2 additional vehicle types: +$199 ea.
3'rd+ additional vehicle types: +$399 ea.
Enhanced IO Interface: +$150

Or am I reading it wrong and they mean different motors and years?

**MKR** · 05-20-2005, 11:55 AM

those are vehicle types.

you missed this.

VCM Suite is the most affordable tuning solution available. Add vehicle support as you go our purchase bulk vehicle types upfront and save money. Each vehicle type you purchase will allow you to reprogram any number of vehicles of that model and year. You are only "locked" to the model/years that you purchase.

poconojoe · 05-20-2005, 04:12 PM

I saw that, but it also said you were locked in to your cable and couldn't, use a different one. I will look at it before i decide to buy, By the way I didn't see S10's listed on their buy page. Other trucks but not sdimes.

that's correct, s10's aren't on their list as of yet, the only point in the comparison is the ease of use of the software. almost any beginner can use hpt. tunercat on the other hand isn't for the beginner.

poconojoe · 05-21-2005, 05:11 AM

MKR, thanks for your input on this, since without it, I wouldn't even have given HP Tuner a sesond look, since I misunderstood, their pricing schedule and thought it locked you in to one vehicle, per purchase. When I'm ready to buy, I'll see if they've added S10's and compare the two. It's nice to have somebody with experiance with both pieces of software, instead of the normal one guy versing the other saying his is best.

PS Have you used CATS Tuner for OBD1 and if you have, how would you compare the ease of use to these two programs. Don't take having to burn a chip into it, since that's a limitation of the ECM, not the program. I feel fairly at ease using it, not that ,I bought it to make big horsepower, if fact I originally bought it to turn the VATS off on a TPI swap, since at the time everybody wanted $100 - $150, just to do that. I figured before paying that kind of money I'd try it myself.

**MKR** · 05-23-2005, 02:31 PM

i've used it, but don't own it as of this point. i plan to buy that before the end of the summer. before the end of the year i plan to be able to program every gm vehicle i can find software for. i found the software to be very similar to the obd2. the loading the new tune just being 10 times more work with the chip system.

qbnkiller · 05-23-2005, 06:24 PM

....unless the Moates adaptor/Ostrich system works out....we'll see when we start tuning mine

j_gor78 · 06-06-2005, 02:09 PM

So I just recieved my tunercat today....I was wondering if it could copy a hypertech program...eg...i save the file that is allready in my pcm (hypertech) and then make changes on top of what's there??

Also if someone could tell me what I need to change to set it for the colder thermostat??

s10rz350 · 06-06-2005, 02:20 PM

Yes. I suggest you download the cfg with the hypertech tuning, unload the hypertech tuning from your pcm and grab a stock cfg as well. That way you have the original one to go back too.

As far as the stat tuning- besides being able to advance timing there is a parameter you can turn off if the stat is too cold (160 degree) so it doesnt throw a code. I dont have my tuning software here so I cant tell you specifically which one it is. Might want to compare the hypertech colder stat tuning to the stock cfg and see what the difference is.

So you think that it would copy it...that's pretty cool if it does!!

Of course it will.

gotswrv · 06-06-2005, 04:30 PM

Second that.
Done it.

j_gor78 · 06-06-2005, 04:32 PM

I was hoping it would..cause now I can sell my hypertech right away as it will be a few weeks before i can hit the dyno for a full tune....so being able to copy the hypertech makes my life good!!

gotswrv · 06-06-2005, 04:37 PM

Being able to compare the two is also very good for understanding what to change and how much makes a difference. If you can use the HPP to program different levels of fuel grade so it and save them. It should give a very good idea of how delicate some tables are.
I was not offered this with mine, I've heard there are octane specific tunes now.

Can these tables be obtained as an upgrade? PEACE>Tony

Verne · 06-06-2005, 07:14 PM

I could not get mine to copy the ECU with the hypertech installed also tried a buddies truck and it wouln't copy it either. Had to uninstall the one on my truck and go from there.

Verne

s10rz350 · 06-06-2005, 07:19 PM

thats odd. I had no problem with it. It is after all just changes to the existing tables.

Verne · 06-06-2005, 07:23 PM

Someone told me (cant remember who) that the hypertech locks the ECU so you wouldn't be able to copy it. It might have to do with it being a '97 model. The other truck I tried was also a '97. Who knows. If I can get my buddy at the shop to order one for testing I will try again.

Verne

***Jess*** · 06-06-2005, 10:45 PM

i have a limited copy of a hypertech tune. not problem reading it. but its not much of a tune. just tire size and gear.

gotswrv · 06-07-2005, 02:50 AM

Yah what Charlie said. Nothing new, just a recal. For a lot of people they don't know where to start when trying to get a few ponies outta a stock motor. Looking over a Hypertech save will show where to make simle tweak and give examples of reasonable amounts of change.

Tony, you do not want to do what Hypertech does. Probably the opposite in the same spots would be a good start.

j_gor78 · 06-13-2005, 01:18 PM

So I finally got to playing with the tunercat...and no torque management ROCKS!!!
Thanks to all you guys for your help.....

Now it's time to try and figure out how to tune for a granatelli....any ideas???

**MKR** · 06-14-2005, 01:13 PM

yes, you need to re-scale it for a maf of the same size.

j_gor78 · 06-14-2005, 05:40 PM

Any ideas as to what a comparable maf would be??

I have been reading up on ls1tech and other tuning sites...tuning for the maf seems to be a lot harder than it seems.

Any help so we can all figure this out will be valuable

Get your current MAF tuned to very near right. WBO2 included. Then put on the new MAF. Tune the MAF to look like the old one did, off your fuel trims (assuming you have a feed back tool). Then check for upper airflows with the WBO2. If you do not have a feed back tool, like a logger or scanner, leave it alone...

Are you doing this on an S-10? If so what do you hope to gain? The MAF isn't a choking point at all.

Get your current MAF tuned to very near right isn't very specific...what needs to be tuned?? what tables are involved???

This is all valuable information that we will need to have.....

your right the maf isn't a choking point but when you have a procharged s10 sitting in a garage not running cause of p101 (airflow out of range). Then the maf needs to be redone.

**MKR** · 06-15-2005, 02:37 PM

your maf should be tuned to one of the same size. most commonly the granatelli maf is the same size internally and externally as the maf from a full size. i'd recomend scaling your maf to the table from an L31.

sebast19 · 06-15-2005, 02:58 PM

Does it possible to see what is the hypertech 93 tuning parameter ?? Like spark advance and injector timing. Thanks.

Any help so we can all figure this out will be valuable Get your current MAF tuned to very near right. WBO2 included. Then put on the new MAF. Tune the MAF to look like the old one did, off your fuel trims (assuming you have a feed back tool). Then check for upper airflows with the WBO2. If you do not have a feed back tool, like a logger or scanner, leave it alone... Are you doing this on an S-10? If so what do you hope to gain? The MAF isn't a choking point at all. Sam

Sam Get your current MAF tuned to very near right isn't very specific...what needs to be tuned?? what tables are involved??? This is all valuable information that we will need to have..... your right the maf isn't a choking point but when you have a procharged s10 sitting in a garage not running cause of p101 (airflow out of range). Then the maf needs to be redone.
