    handheld? Possiblity?

    Is there any possiblity you guys might be offering a hand held option? Alot of my customers like hand helds so they can go back to stock or switch tunes. That leaves me with SCT or diablo sport.. neither of which I'm too fond of.

    Don't all the products alter the stock calibration? That holding true the only difference between SCT, Diable and a Handheld HPT would be the calibration, which really it's a market definer, unlike a laptop interface and unlimited possibilities that HPT brings with it. Why would they try to enter the hand held tuner market when thats got lots of coverage.

    Basically I want a "loader/flasher/scanner" so I and customers don't have carry laptop and such to swtich tunes for different fuels or if I want use the bottle for the weekend.

    Plus you can load 4 tunes examples why: E85/NO2 , E85/ high BOOST, Reg pump gas, Reg pump gas/NO2.

    Something like EFIlive has in their "autocal" unit.

    I really wish the MVPI unit came with ability to hold couple of tune and flash them.

    As a potential customer that is on the fence because of this issue. Can you provide any indication as to the timing for the release of this solution?

    Thanks!

    That sounds sweet. Keith.



    Trustcraze the question you ask is the most difficult question for a business to ever answer. If they would give a date & do not meet the date. People would be complaining about the date that was missed. If they rush to get it out & do not get rid of all the bugs, then the customers are still not happy. They should have fixed the bugs. We have no idea what these guys go through to get a product out to us. Keith, I say take your time & get the best product you guys can for us.
