Do you have the HPTuners program on your laptop?

If you haven't got the software installed on the laptop yet, here's a good place to start.

It is not tough, there are just a few steps/hurdles to figure out.  You paid for a service, though; he should have no problems walking you through it.  That way you can be sure to be getting all of the specific PIDs recorded that he may specifically want.

@joshmcmadmanmacadilly,

Lyndon sends a file that has all the parameters set so he can get what he needs, so you are pretty much spot on.

OP- where are you located?
( I'm on mobile only, sorry if you have it posted)

I don't know that he does that any longer Steven as he didn't do that when I tuned mine.

He is in NJ

Just come down to the Mod Meet in a month and we will get you squared away.
We have numerous people with HP Tuners installed on Laptops that should have a license for your year vehicle.
We can help you run the datalogs that Lyndon wants to look at, then email them to him.
At the same time, we can get his scanner setup on your laptop and show you how to do this in the future.

Since i will be in school literally 1 week before the Maryland meet it is just not possible i will be able to make the meet. I am looking for somebody in the NJ, PA area that can help me get the info Lyndon needs and teach me how to read and install the updates within the next 10 days. i am willing to pay cash as a thanks for helping but im trying to get this done before i ship out to school so i can send Lyndon's tuner cable back. Thanks!
