I am interested in getting the 11psi procharger kit you offer, but I had some questions about how the tuning is performed over the internet. I run Mac OSX and I dont think the SCT software will work on my computer. Would I be able to plug in the xcal and just email you the tune files or do I have to first load them into a specific SCT program before I can email them to you?

You'll need a PC running windows XP to program the x2, then you'll need a laptop to datalog with. However, the new livewire will datalog internally so a laptop would not be required.

With the datalogging livewire, could you (Justin) tune remotely? I would just need the livewire and an LC-1 wideband right? Would I just run the car through all the gears on the road, send you the datalogging parameters, and you send a tune back? That would be great! Justin seems like the only one I could trust to tune my car correctly...

Would I be able to get the kit from you with a pretuned SCT chip instead of the x2, lc-1, and remote tuning? Something I could use until I could get a few days off work to come down to Orlando.

An flasher is really the best way to go.
