So I'm looking to buy a laptop just for HP tuners. My assumption is that hp tuners doesn't demand a whole lot out of a computer but I'd rather ask you guys that know. Should I get a halfway decent one or is a ****ty refurbished 1.2 GHz Dell fast enough?

Thats fine, they only require 300 to 400. I was running a 300 mhz for the longest before I upgraded to a 2.0 ghz.08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake
96' Camaro M5 to A4 conversion, alot of mods . GT35R Turbo full suspension. Built engine -

Ah good.. But it just seems weird that the program i'll be using (hp tuners of course) will cost me more than the computer that's gonna run it. It's all for the greater good though. Thanks!Originally posted by ssms5411

You should ask this on the HP tuners board or email them. I remember seeing some guys over there saying they used their desktops to edit the tune and the laptop just to flash it and scan the car.

Re: Laptop performance hah?
just make sure it has usb ports on it. The new versions of hptuners use the usb port to connect. Else you will have to buy a serial to usb cord as well.Comment

hahah, oh **** I shoulda just looked that up first. But I've been doing a lot of stupid things here recently. Yeah I figured it would need a USB port anyways. I'm real familiar with computers and building them.. just not a pro with the programs. Thanks.Originally posted by 97rs4life
