If I were to buy an HP 'Tuner' from a person I know (non-pro version) would the version of the actual hardware matter? Like say the scanner/flasher thing is 2 years old: could I still use the new software with it? And would it have any limitations compared to a new one?
Thank you guys so much! This is my first post
Yes you can use the software right from the customer login page at www.hptuners.com

Is it the USB or serial interface? The latest software is compatible with either but you would not be able to tune some vehicles with the serial interface (EG: Gen 4 LSx's).

USB & Serial interfaces use completely different software & is not compatible.Originally Posted by 5_Liter_Eater

Couldn't find it in a FAQ See my sig , but when you order the pro do you get both the serial and the USB cable? I think I need the USB.....
One other ques, do you get "all" the adapters to hook up to the supported cars trucks etc interface port?

When you order today, you get:
- OBD-II cable to plug into your diagnostic port
- USB HPTuner Box (Standard ($499) or Pro($649))
- 8 credits to use towards licensing any vehicles or Custom OS you want
- USB Cable for your laptop
You do not get the serial version anymore, the USB replaced it. You only need one cable to tune all the vehicles HPTuners supports.
So the serial interface version. Can you buy upgrade to it though like 2 bar?

Hi there I am a newbie to Hptuners learning the basics. I don't know why everytime I down load a bin file it comes up written in crazy writing I can't read. I thought I might need a certain type of decoder or something but found nothing online please help with this problem!
If you've already loaded hptuners onto your pc it sounds like you need to assign hptuners to be the program that will open .bin & .hpt files.

Thanks alot I only loaded it to my laptop loading it to my computer now.
Ok now my computer is saying it could not open the file because it could not find the path.
try saving the file to your desktop, open hptuners, then click file-open & open the file you saved to your desktop.
