So if I chose to get a dyno tune at a later point they could use the FP3?
This is where the FP3 lets itself down. As it doesn't have a computer interface you cannot simply send it the map that it then writes to the ECM. The Power Vision does interface to a computer so after a dyno run has been completed and the map created it can be downloaded to the PV which then writes to the ECM.

It could be done but would be far too tedious to manually enter all the date to the FP3.

can't wait for Bryan's comment here : "hey that's why we have the FP Pro with wideband..once u buy this additional hardware for ur FP3, u can have access to our online browser based software..etc etc, u can edit to ur hearts content"

Why is it that way..and also can i?

"I mean the dyno shop who is a dealer for FP Pro gets to access the software"

huh.!

@Org post.
