I've asked this of Bill before, but I just want to make sure...
So I can buy the Minotaur Automotive Tuning Software™ Package, and I get ONE(1) chip? Right?
That chip can be burnt on my new burner. Right?
If I wanted to order additional chips, I could burn them on my newly aquired burner? Using the same tunes I used on my personal chip? Or the tunes I built myself? Are there files that have a good tune on them and I can "tweak" them to suit my needs or others?
Thanks guys. I'm REALLY considering the Minotaur Automotive Tuning Software™ Package.
Last question. On a single chip "or" say 5, what kind of ballpark would price be?

So... There's a manual that will help me figure out what I'm doing?
I'd like to take the class, but that's a little far out of my price range...
Have you conducted a class yet? I think it'd be worth it for you to film it and sell the tape... IMO.
This kinda helped me fill in alot of blank spaces in my knowledge....

One more thing... I'm gonna have to buy a nice lap-top. What are the requirements to run this software effectively?
What are some other things I would need to tune properly? I know I probably need A/E. Anything else?

Make sure you get a laptop that has drivers still available for WinXP. Don't waste your time with Vista. Kill Vista, install XP, be happy.
Of course that's just my opinion.

And is there any other PC requirements other than XP?
