Hi Sand Man,

EFILive FlashScan V2 has a few features that HPT does not:

- V2 can read the AFR/Lambda from the popular widebands using serial/digital connection (in digital form using RS232); this means that V2 sees the same AFR/Lambda that the wideband sees (i.e. with no errors due to analog voltage offsets or induced noise as would occur with an analog connection).

- V2 accepts an SD memory card, see below (a 2GB SD memory card costs US$5.00 and can hold thousands of log files and tune files).

- V2 can do standalone data logging (black box logging "BBL"): it saves logged pids to a file on SD card (HPT can also do BBL but not to an SD card); the laptop/PC does not need to be connected, it can be left at home.

- V2 can do standalone reading of calibration from ECM/TCM (black box reading "BBR"): it reads the calibration from the ECM/TCM and saves it to SD card.

- V2 will soon be able to do standalone flashing to ECM/TCM (black box flashing "BBF"): it will flash a calibration/tune file into the ECM/TCM from the SD card; this feature is currently being worked on, it is not ready yet.

- V2 can also read/scan all the OBD2 data from the ECM/TCM and save to file on SD card (all OBD2 modes): this is useful for diagnosis of problems; V2 displays a text description for each DTC.

- V2 will soon have bidirectional capability: you will be able to test the function of all the solenoids controlled by the ECM/TCM by commanding the state of each solenoid.


And there are other reasons/features.

Download and install the software, view the sample log files and view/edit the sample tune files (included in the installation), they were taken from real vehicles.

With EFILive you would buy the whole computer family... EG all 6 speed auto, all E38 ECM, all LS1, etc. If you're tuning anything more than just a couple of vehicles, the cost savings can be big.

You buy this: V2 Scan and Tune.


It comes with 2 licenses, each license can flash one ECM/TCM pair.


Your English is good, I understand all your questions....

[joecar]

If you're tuning the VE table and/or MAF table, you should also buy a wideband O2 sensor... be sure to get one that outputs the AFR/Lambda in serial format.

when it comes to reality i cant pay 2500$ to be able to tune all e38s or all e67s,i dont own a shop YET,+if i opend one ill start with mechanical upgrades so a year model tunning licence is more convenince,is there a way to do so with efilive it would be alot cheaper and easyer and cheaper cause i will only be tunning trucks and working on them..

There are individual vehicle licenses, no year/model. Each individual license you purchase can be used towards purchasing a stream though.
