I did not see that part about including the tune up. It makes it worth it to me. Or I likely spend more than that driving to Idaho for the tune and have no AutoCal for after.

I just checked Black Bear and a new AutoCal is $600. Wow!
That includes the tune which is $325 by itself I believe. You can license around 225 VIN’s with one Autocal so if you know anyone else who wants a tune you could charge for the use of your Autocal and recoup some of the $275 that it costs, or tune other GM vehicles you own, or sell the Autocal later. They show up for $200-$225 used from time to time, but if you buy one off anywhere other than this forum, make sure to get the S/N and contact Blackbear to see if it’s compatible and not locked. Actually, check anyway.

Those are garbage ,that’s what they are. Supposedly a “canned” tune but most likely you’ll either end up with no gains or possibly just trouble. I would stay far away.

Yea, I wasn't planning on using them but when I saw it I was surprised. Cheap and 5 star reviews.....yea, right. It's a witches brew of problems I'll bet.
