I know this program will allow you to tune your PCM but can you also tune your ECU like the hypertech powerprogrammer will do.(air/fuel ratio,shift points,rev limiter,top speed limiter,etc.) I'm a little confused about this.

 

LT1 edit will enable you to do most of the stuff the mail order tuners can do. The main difference is the fact that those guys have alot of experience in setting up programs for different combo's and they can get fairly close without seeing the car.

 

Where can we get LT1 edit?

 

go to www.carputing.com I believe they are the only place that sells it. They also created it. There's lots of usefull info on thier site.

 

But after I buy this program can I tune my ECU and PCM both and change engine parameters like a powerprogrammer.

 

Look on the website posted above, they can explain it far better than I can.

 

Yes, but keep in mind, you don't know what the Hypertech guys know. You wouldn't know what to change (and wouldn't want to use their program anyway based on what I've read). You can really screw stuff up if you don't know what you're doing.

But to answer your question - yes.

 

ECU = engine control uint = PCM = powertrain control module

They are two terms for the same thing.

I should be able to do everything that a powerprogrammer can do.
right?

 

with the proper knowledge, you control just about everything the pcm does on that car. Personally, I use Tunercat. It's a personal preference, and cheaper than LT1 edit. What I did, was get a mail order tune from MadZ28.com, then tweak his tune on the dyno. It all comes down to doing what you're comfortable with.

 

It does much much more than that PP POS does.. it just takes more knowledge on how to do it. It's not just as simple as picking which options you want "improved".. it's more detailed in the programming of the computer.

 

Where can I learn this knowledge and what kind of program do i need to do it

 

Good luck i am still trying to learn EDIT, It is like learning a foreign language. lol
I have it and all i have done is load my mail order tunes, havent touched the tables.
