That's good to know...

It just sucks that you can't get into it at all. The closest tuner is Sean Ivey, which is about 9hr round trip for us...

Hks should built it such that you can Monitor it, but lock out changes...If a sensor goes bad, I want to hook my laptop up to it and see wtf is going on...Not everytime something little happends have to truck it back to a V-Pro dealer.

We are dealing with that now with the poopra!

Get an Fcon Navigator.

why is it that you cannot pass emissions with a autronic,??? or any other standalone, I have a standalone, but no issues with emissions, ofcourse the rules here are different but want to learn what rules apply for you that makes it difficult.

No CEL's , To assure the factory computer is in fact running the vehicle and functioning properly. I'm sure there are more but that should give you the jist.

Being in the computer industry, it would be so much easier for them to lock out out changes to to maps rather than make the Fcon Navigator.

This is what I'm doing now for the 2nd year in a row...... I run an AEM EMS and for the past two years had to convert back to the stock ECU, injectors, MAF, MAP, and cams in order to pass.....

I think its silly I gotta go thru all this work, but in the end its all worth it to drive a 500+ AWHP Evo the other 364 days of the year...
