    Load Hptuners TUNES to handhelds, programmers or scanners?

    Friends and I are in debate if there is a handheld, programmer or scanner like H&S, SCT livewire, EFIlive's DashDaQ or whatever that I can load HP tuners TUNES into and then flash onto our vehicles?

    Why? That would be a huge risk to the handheld companies for someone with no credentials to sell tunes using their name.

    What you "can" do is, READ an ECU that has a tune file flashed to it from a programmer.

    As an example, if you have an SCT flashed tune on your car, you could use HPT to read the file and compare it to stock to see what was actually done.

    Hasn't this been an ongoing theme for a couple of years though?

    I'm curious but in all seriousness it would need to cost a max of $200-250 per device vin to be usable.

    Looks to me like an alternative to people buying HPT, having someone remote tune their car, and then selling HPT. If it's reasonably priced I see a lot of people getting into it.

    The picture from Facebook is a handheld we are working on.

    In addition to this, we are working with E-Motion Products, who makes the nGauge and nDash devices, so that we are able to export/import tune files to those devices.

    will the new handheld be a logging device?

    I hate to ask, since I know it's very difficult to forsee roadblocks that commonly tend to slow things down, but any news on this front? Are we much closer to a release now than we were 3 months ago?

    Yes. The current beta has the ability to import and export tune files to the E-Motion nGauge for Ford Copperhead ECMs. I have tested it this week on my personal car, and it has worked flawlessly. We will be selling the nGauge very soon.

    That's great to hear! I deal primarily in DCx tuning, are DCx vehicles very far out as compared to Ford?
