Livernois Tuning released

[Nevada_Bob]

Thinking about sending it on the purchase, if I only have MACs in my house am I screwed though? Says I need windows

I have the same problem. I think the options boil down to this.. Run a windows emulator on our Mac, or buy a cheepo windoz machine.

I'm leaning toward the separate machine, so as not to soil my Macbook.

You’ll definitely need a PC running Windows OS to run the software.

Running a VM won’t work with the software. Alternatively you might be able to if you partition your Mac to run boot camp. (Not sure if that’s the solution, but I know for a fact that running a VM does not work)

Just pick up an $85 pc from Amazon. I had the same issue since we were totally Mac and the little pc is my garage computer now.

BootCamp will work. I'm running a dual boot with Windows 7 on a MacBook Pro and am able to use the software. ?

RangersLeadTheWay thanks for the correction and CO2Ranger, thanks for the confirmation

I like the garage computer idea

i mean if I don’t plan on changing out my tune all too often and just need the windows for the stock tune uploading and new stock downloading then I should be able to just use a friends .

Super cost efficient; I almost did the same, but I needed a new laptop anyhow ??‍

I still prefer a desktop computer. For the occasional laptop needs I just grabbed a cheap craigslist one....there's a guy near me that gets the old ones a few companies lease an returned them to factory settings an sells them for under a hundred bucks.

I'm not sure if this has been asked/answered but if one was to drive normal, i.e., driving for fuel economy, will this tune increase, decrease or keep it about the same? I would do a 93 octane tune fwiw.

I'm not really concerned with fuel economy but it is nice that I can get pretty good fuel economy when I want to.

My experience is it will increase. I gained at least 2 mpg highway using cruise control and the 93 performance tune.

When driving for fuel economy, you will get better (or worst case, the same) gas mileage with the performance tune.

Can confirm, my MPG went up from 20.x to 23.x with the 91-93 soft shift. I'm not always an either.

If anything I would still like an update in the MyTouch Calibrator for an actual boost pressure gauge. Yes we hap map but it like the PSI reading better.

Are you stock other than tune?

Yep. No other mods.
