All chips can tap into the same parameters. The tuning options are universal.
Jeez 94, let's get technical shall we?

I guess I'm speaking of the interface when tuning...

Our shop uses a laptop and dyno, and while I specifically don't do the tuning, from what I have seen from the interface, while a little outdated, its pretty user friendly and straight forward.

We should soon be able to do custom tunes with diablo chips also, so I'm fairly curious to see the interface.

Note to the wise:
Most shops download "pre-configured" files for most set-ups using an after-market chip.
This is usually the reason you see different outcomes from using different chips. It's not the hardware that makes a difference, its how agressive the program is....
This set-up is fine for most "near-stock" applications, but when things such as forced induction are involved, nothing will replace a custom dyno-tune.

Just a word to the wise...
