I have it, though I'm in the learning process. I think my car was tuned before, but it had some issues. Wrote it back to stock for the time being. Just need to start data logging now.

How did you manage to write back to stock ? I've managed to pull a tune off the car but not sure exactly if it's the stock one or the one I had added ?
do you have your stock file so I could compare them
?

Found someone how tunes through it
Seems interesting and good for data logging so going to play with it for a bit and see what comes of it
My long term fuel trims are quite a way off apparently 30% bank one and 18% on bank 2 addition

My car also tuned with HP. Never missed a beat through various tunes at different stages (NA, Supercharged 5ps, 11psi) Very happy with the tune and the gains.

All tunes done by the guys at VCM/Autotechnique in Melbourne Aus. Charger is the Magnusson setup. Lots of info in my build thread re tuning and improvements.

When I first loaded it up I got a message that said "Unable to read data. Would you like to write a stock file?" Clicked yes after that. I did save it after, so I have a file I can send.
