ah...see, you did not get the point...

it does NOT give you the ability to change options.

NOT within a stock tune.

you have to "buy" a tune to put in it, and then you can ONLY alter options on that BASE tune...

you can NOT alter options on a "stock" tune.
the only stock setting is STOCK



that's when i about lost my cool with the SCT helpdesk.


how can you sell something, that you don't at least post a usable tune on your website?


go to Dynojet Power Commander website, or FuelMoto....literally HUNDREDs of FREE tunes for their product.


Mike, shoot me a PM if you have the software to create a new tune.
money is not a problem, as long as the tune is RIGHT

No my friend you're missing the point. They come loaded with a tune that is able to be changed (Ie: spark, fuel, gear ratio, fan temp settings, etc), they don't just come "blank". I've had (and currently have one) several versions of the Xcal and Diablo Sport handheld tuners. The only way it would be "blank" would be if it was locked/married to another vehicle. At that point it would only be good for datalogging purposes.

Some come pre-loaded. Others are Custom, and only have custom tunes on them. It should of came with tunes from the shop/retailer who sold the tuner. Sounds like someone erased the tunes that were on there. Which is easily done.

well, i was sitting there, with the tuner plugged into my laptop, and reading stuff off the screen to the CSR.

it would SEEM that he would say "download your tune, and send it to me, let me SEE what you got"
