While i was at the SEMA show last week i ran into the SCT booth and i was talking to the SCT CEO. Well it turns out that they have all the software to tune and reprogram our 2.2's. Not only that they still have the first the garrett alpha kit cobalt and they are trying to sell it...puts out 260+whp for a very very low price...and very very low miles

hit me up if you want to know more about this sleeper that they are selling

well they have the software like i was saying but for some reason they think there is no market for it...i told them its been a few years now and the market is here for them to launch their livewire software that will include the tuning for the 2.2's. Well the CEO emailed me and told me he is going to have a meeting with his engineers and sales manager. The sales manager wants to see about 100 buyers before they launch the software...but they have all the capabilities to do it. i know we are in a down economy but there have been soo many of us wanting real tuning where we dont have to pay someone else to do it for us. Here is our opportunity. lets show some interest

here is an email from the CEO to me

Here are some questions from my engineer, if you can answer this I can give you a better idea on what we can do to help
Thank you
Rick

Two questions and I can help provide a timeframe.

They are looking for support for what exact Model Years and what
Engines.

Is he looking for Custom Tuning or Pre-Programmed Support?

My thought is that he is looking for the oddball 2005/2006
Manual/Auto vehicles that we did for Garrett (it would be nice to know
exactly what is expected).

Great news indeed! i for one would be interested if available for 07's, but for a reasonable $ of course.

and i dont like to say it but 100 members may be easier at fail.net.

if you dont mind im going to copy and paste your post to g5club.net to stir some interest.

Personally, I'd like to have a custom one off tune. I mean yeah, a tune in general is going to be sweet. But getting one that is specific to your motor and modifications can yield more power. From what I understand SCT isnt offering that service.

heres an update from Rick Trudo

I am having my engineers look at your request and we feel we can do those vehicles both as a strategy flash device and offer custom tuning availability.

and, from the sounds of it...they would want 100 people preorder...which i dont see ever happening, that is the sad thing about the balt community, lots of people that want the option, not a lot who will pay up for it...

i just hope they do decide to release it...the CEO is talking with his engineers right now and he is going to give me a time frame of when to expect it, if they do decide to release

yes they can...they have done it with their livewire software...obviously your talking to the wrong person. They have all the files stored for our cars but its not included in any of their software...but it will be soon
