Hi All,
I am looking for someone local in the Penrith, NSW area that can read the tune from my VX LS1. The car was mafless tuned about 9 years ago and produces very nice smooth power.
My original tuner is no longer around or at least I can't track them down. I am about to sell the car, but would like to keep a copy of the tune files seeing and I paid a lot for the dyno time to get it right. Can anyone suggest someone that might be able to read this for me. I do not require editing of the tune. Just a read.
Thanks in advance, John

as long as its not locked then anyone with HPT or EFI can read it ( or even hptuner ngauge can read tune file) and wont cost anything, wont matter what format its kept in

Id be happy to pay someone to do it, but had a quote already and though it was a bit steep considering no license is required to read with HPT or EFILive. 07GTS can you help suggest someone?

Over $100 for something that takes a couple of minutes, requires no added expense for licensing and no real skill. I've decided to buy my own MPVI2 so I can read my old VX tune and play around with my new LS3 and my mates L77. Just hope it arrived before the VX sells.

It's been a long time since to played around with tuning. I come from the days of EEPROMS and Memcals and ALDL ports running at 160 or 8192 Baud speed. I even wrote my own live monitoring software for the ALDL system which most people wont even remember. Very excited about getting my new MPVI2. It is ordered and paid for, so just waiting now.

sounds good if u like playing around with it the hptuners scanner has some great filter maths functions u can make up yourself, took me a while to wrap my head around because i dont speak much computer, also there is a add on u can pay for that if u have the ability to find your own "can data" u can make your own tables in the tune if u can identify the PID u want to adjust but that stuff is over my head
