Dale@CHE Member 52 Member For: 17y 10m 17d Posted 07/02/09 09:46 PM Posted 07/02/09 09:46 PM You're making it look like tuning the car using the VCM software has somehow given it more power. That graph shows tuner A and tuner B. A custom tune using VCM software as opposed to a custom tune using SCT software is not comparable in a graph format but rather how it is used by the tuner.Plus, I highly doubt you'll ever see live tuning on these PCMs.fair call. I think Erko hit the point when he said"AND spends the time on YOUR car"

If you goto another tuner, you WILL have to purchase more credits/bullets for them to license your vehicle on their device.If you had a SCT box, you just take your box to your nearest SCT tuner..Pro's and Cons about both methods Edited 08/02/09 06:16 AM by Headsex
Dale@CHE Member 52 Member For: 17y 10m 17d Posted 08/02/09 06:41 AM Posted 08/02/09 06:41 AM the tuner has to purchase them, not the end user, if you choose to go to another tuner then you will more than likley be paying for a full tune again.
