    Default Just bought a WH caprice... Now, where to buy some tuning software..

    Hi All ,I would just like to a few tips I guess...
    As the Title states I have just bought a WH Caprice (LS1 Auto) and I am going to turbo it..
    I have built plenty of turbo systems before so that isn't an Issue and I am only going to be running between 7-8psi from a HX52 so the engine would be pretty happy.. But where can I buy the tuning software as I would rather tune it myself.. Im not to fussed about what software I use, just as long as it is easy to use. VCM Suite looks pretty good but i have seen a couple others as well..

    Any ideas gimme a yell..
    Will.

    EFIlive is a cheaper alternative - a few of my friends use it.

    $940 delivered. Still getting my head around it. You will need a WB02 kit as well. I am getting this:Wideband WBo2 2J9 Technical Information (Tech Edge) There are more brands all arounnd the same price.
