I think the TunerCat setup doesnt have as many options as it should. Hehe My 8D definition file has more tables and more stuff I can tinker with. If you open up a 165 bin in WinBin there's TONS of stuff you can change. I wish I could see that in Tunercat.

730 uses a 256K prom and has lots more stuff (vs a 165 and the 128). Also, tend to use more with a MAP system. Specially since it's more in *demand* for hipo applications.
Ya just need to know what you really want to work with for it to appear usually, with tunercat from what I've experienced. To put all the tables in each TDF would mean each tdf would be alot more money. I still an shocked for how much you get for your money nowadays. Used to be $350 for the spark VE, and a couple diagnostics. And they were locked so you had to use a base bin..
