LS1 Boost OS V2.1
Re: LS1 Boost OS V2.1
What is confusing is why is there even talk about using a "user created" operating system with any type of commercial software....especially hp tuners.
If you want to use Hp Tuners....then just use an HPT COS and be done with it. Rewriting how an operating system works and reusing the stock OS number is only going to cause issues down the road for a lot of people. The reason custom OS numbers are used is so that its simple to tell a stock OS from a modified OS.

To each their own. I was doing it for almost a year before getting enough of a XDF created to use TunerPro for all my tuning.

Re: LS1 Boost OS V2.1
I do think a custom OS number is a good thing, just makes it easier to identify, especially in DIY tuning solutions with PCMHammer and LS Droid. Its common for people to post up what their OS number is to find a suitable XDF. If its a stock value but custom OS, well, they are going to be editing the wrong tablesbubba2533 wrote:To each their own.

Re: LS1 Boost OS V2.1
My biggest gripe with bin tuning is general is..............tuner pro. Which has led me to use hpt in that past in a hacky manner. I'm trying out EcuEdit right now as a possible alternative (but it costs money...not a big deal. but its also hardware locked which would be a deal breaker for many).

I thought it got changed to a custom ID already ...

Re: LS1 Boost OS V2.1
Because tuner pro sucks and when you have the necessary tools and knowledge to use a better interface that does the same bin editing why not.160plus wrote:What is confusing is why is there even talk about using a "user created" operating system with any type of commercial software....especially hp tuners.

I wouldn't use this in a customer vehicle in it's current state anyhow until I had time to run it through it's paces myself. I would also BIN edit the OSID back to what it's supposed to be once finished tuning.

What is it that you don't like about Tuner Pro?

Please don't PM me with technical questions - start a thread instead, and send me a link to it. That way I can answer in public, and help other people who have the same question. Thanks!

Mainly user interface. Graph/table editing festures is the biggest for me. Hpt is just so much more refined with editing and viewing parameters. The hooks it has so you can use filtered math channels in their scanner to apply corrections to tables is a huge time saver too.NSFW wrote:What is it that you don't like about Tuner Pro?

Re: LS1 Boost OS V2.1
So, I'm curious, are most of you doing your tuning in EFI live or hptuners instead of using tunerpro? I've never tuned, just eliminated vats for custom swaps, so considering using this on a boost build I want to do. Also, I saw a post about RTLS1, is it real time tuning? Anyone using pcmlogger? I haven't tried it yet, but I use vcmscanner and wondering if it's comparable? TIA, and impressive work bubba!

Re: LS1 Boost OS V2.1
Pretty much all my tuning is done with HPTuners. I use Tunerpro for the Delco ecus, but That's about it. Meaning to try the Boost OS though. Looks fantastic.
