VersaTuner Black Friday Sale 2014

[Steve@VersaTune]

For a limited time, VersaTuner and the VersaTuner+VersaLink bundle are available at a great discount.
There has never been a better time to kiss SWAS torque limits and shift stutter goodbye!

Hurry! The offer ends at Midnight EST 7 December 2014.

My order has been placed. I've wanted to switch for quite a while, so I took advantage of the sale. I'm really looking forward to learning another software package and taking advantage of VT's features.

[Steve@VersaTune]

Welcome aboard!

[Jarods7920]

I switched this time last year! Love it!

@Steve@VersaTune, would you mind starting a feature request thread here on MSF? I know you have one on your forums, but it's a much larger crowd here. I think, as more folks consider moving to VT, they'll have features in mind they wish they could have. I know I've had a few things in mind for a long time.

Feature requests and ideas

Is this still being looked at? This is what you are asking for, yeah? @phate;

Yep, but a new one was created and stickied today. Official VersaTuner Feature Request Thread

[Steve@VersaTune]

Done.

[802MS3]

Soooo...how much better is VT than ATR...?

[Steve@VersaTune]

I'm kind of partial to VT, but here are a few key advantages of VT.

Smooth Shift - Shift stutter elimination
SWAS torque limit disable
Modern UI with a local database to store tunes and logs
Advanced log viewer with .csv and vitual dyno export formats
MegaSpool - configurable full boost launch control
Gen1 extended key tables to 4.0 Load and 8000 RPM with full resolution.

[udntknw]

Saw that after I posted this. I find this one first and didn't see the other one.

[Steve@VersaTune]

Most everything on the old thread has been added. The new one is sticky so it won't get lost.

[SparkySparks]

Really tempted to make the switch, I need to get a laptop to replace my 8 year old one I have now first. I also need to do more research in load tuning (which I wanted to start doing anyway).

Need to start looking to see which, if any of the Windows tablets work with it.

[Steve@VersaTune]

Any Windows 8 laptop or tablet should work so long as it's not Windows RT which is not compatible with any "normal" Windows apps.

I have a HP Stream 7 that I got for $99 direct from HP. It works great. Tune editing is a little tough on the small screen. You can use a desktop to edit tunes and view logs. We don't limit how many PCs you install VersaTuner on.

Thank you, I would really only need it for logging and I would use the desktop for everything else. Still going to try and talk the wife into letting me get a new laptop but nice to know there is a cheap option also.

Plan on having a convert sale? I'm ready now but can wait for the next sale

[Polish_Eagle]

Sale or no sale, just jump on it! I made the switch last year and have no regrets. The support alone makes the purchase worth it! Steve and the others at VersaTune are awesome!

[NCspecV81]

if I can save $100 or more I'm gonna wait. I already have a tuning solution that works.

I would doubt it gets any better than this.

If you have a v2, it's $120 difference after you sell it.

If you have a v3, it's money in your pocket.

Well right now its not on sale. So it's $549. I can wait a few months if it's gonna be $449 again.

[BLKSTIG]

1. NCspecV81
2. BLKSTIG

[NCspecV81]

Sounds like @Rob@Hypnotictuning; could be in as well.

[rfinkle2]

I can get 10 guys in on this. I would like to make sure that making the switch is worth it though.

I need to make sure of a few things with Steve , but I have a list of guys wanting to convert already.

[ge3kspd]

^^ I'm with the boss man. Once Rob is good to go, I'm game with him. I'm sick of the lack of support we're getting from Cobb.

Ditto with this. From what I'd read it seems to accommodate big turbo guys much better.

There's a screenshot there.

[NCspecV81]

well I'm down for whatever happens. If we buy now does it include the future updates?

[ge3kspd]

I was just reading on the the versatune site and noticed one thing that I'm not sure. The license is attached to the vin. Just to be clear, that means you buy and that's it, you can not re sell it if you decide to uninstall and sell the car..?

Yeah, that's what the other have said. it's permanently locked to your VIN.

[Steve@VersaTune]

The license stays with the vehicle. It can be transferred to the new vehicle owner when you sell the car.

You killin' me smalls.

[BLKSTIG]

@Steve@VersaTune; is the launch control for the rx8 timing based or fuel based? I asked on 8club and the response I received from someone on the forum was fuel based. I know that's not true for this platform and I assumed he was incorrect since I didn't hear it from you.

[Steve@VersaTune]

We use the stock rev limiter code on both platforms. DISI engines use fuel cut. I believe rotaries use fuel cut as well. I would have to see a data log to confirm.

[jdmage_mx5]

I'm in for the convert also!

[NCspecV81]

@Steve@VersaTune; any plans for a wnidows based program for monitoring similar to like the torque app for your product?

[Steve@VersaTune]

We have data logging with current/min/max display , graphing, export, code reading, and code clearing. What other functionality are you looking for?

This is how it looks on my HP Stream 7" with Win 10

Datalogging and parameters to the left


Datalogging with all optional windows closed giving the datalogging window maximum space


Graphing of all 12 logged parameters


Graphing of RPM and Boost on a 2-3-4 gear log


Tune editor with E85 Calc, Tables window is in "Dockable" mode by default. You can also choose "Floating" "Tabbed Document" "Auto Hide" "Hide"


Tune editor with Auto Hide activated on the Tables window.



Here's a bug that I'll see from time to time, tunes window freezes so tunes are not accessible. Fixes itself by restarting VT. Will be fixed with next update?



Overall VT works really well on a tablet and PC/laptop
