Can i still get a tuner?

I was planning on getting a xcal2/3 from vmp tunning and was just wondering is the program i need to download from sct will work for a MAC. I dont know who/if anyone here has one or not and know for sure. If it doesnt any ideas how i could get my tunes via email if i cant hook it to my macbook?

Well since you can run Windows on Macs there is no problem. I'm not sure if the program will work on the Mac though. I'd give Justin at VMP Tuning a call and ask him, he'll be able to help you out.

I was hoping you or justin would see that post thump. Yea i can run windows with my boot camp software but i have to buy 2 differant things of software(XP, and pararrels). And they can be quit exspensive. But i will give justin a call when i get closer to time of ordering. But i think i figured out a way i can make it work, cause i have another computer it just doesnt have internet access. But i think if i get a jump drive and save the files to it from my mac and load them all on it i can make it work. Just a few more steps. But i think it be worth my trouble.

My tunes came loaded on my xcal3. I'm sure you can ask Justin to load your tunes for you before he ships it.

me too. i think he preloads them on mail orders, just so he doesnt have to fool with sending both an email and the programmer. you will definitely love your tunes!

Yea i know i will, just dont know if i should wait till i get my CAI or getting them here soon. I know Justin will reconfig my tunes in the first 6 months but i just don't know how long it will be in between the two.

i would wait....unless youve already ordered the CAI, then just tell him you have it, and wait until you get the CAI to load them.

Yea i probally will wait till i can order the both together. The CAI will void my warranty wont it? I know the tunes will but i can always flash back to stock. So i am not worried about that. So i might just order the tunes here soon anyways just without the CAI.

It will only void your warranty for that particular part and if the mod causes something to fail. If your window motor brakes, they aren't going to not fix it.

I get your example thump but if i have custom tuning and they know it and lets say my cam phasers go out(which they better not since they just got replaced yesterday!) i dont want to have to pay that. Thats why i would probaly just go back to stock tune everytime i take it in for routine check-ups.
