Did you buy LS1 Edit or HP Tuners ? LS1 Edit doesn't have a scanner ( just a beta version on Edit ). The first thing I done was scan . The first change was fans.

Aloha,
Nope,haven't purchased yet.I have a scanner,and was leaning toward LS1 edit,because there only 2 people on this rock that i know are decend and could maybe help me as i'm learning.
I'm open to all advise,if you and others think HP tunners is better,i can go for that.I should be getting it around christmas/new years.Gives me a month or so before long tubes.Then cam,intake,injectors a few months later.I'm hoping to get a handle on it by then.
Until then,maybe fans,torque managment,shift points.(auto - 3:15s)
My laptop(only for the tunning program)is windows 98,is that sufficient?
Thanks bro.

Funny thing about the word Aloha,it basically means hello,and good bye.(I'm origanally from L.A.)
Thanks for the advise,i'll be in touch very soon.I think i'll go with HP tunner,i better go check the number on my computer.It's loaded with programs,i'm going to have to strip the computer of some things.
