Previously there weren't a lot of us with tools that could dump the PCM easily. That all changes now, the more of these sold, the less people can hide in the dark and make their BS claims about their calibrations. You'll be able to dump and view the contents of as many PCMs as you want without even using credits, as those don't get used until you edit a file.
I wonder if this will force AM/Bama out of the tuning game after some people see what's in their tunes...

I'd like to say yes, but I'm already amazed that a company is still in business when they are pretty much known for crappy chinese wheels and crappy tunes. They sell the hell out of both, the masses buy the cheapest thing.

That is because there are a LOT of people who buy these cars who can't really afford them and mod them as cheap as possible. The same unexperienced people who have not learned that valuable lesson of getting what you pay for.

They seem to cater to the V6 community a lot, which I can understand as there really isn't much 3.7 support that is widely known out there as much as Bama.
