Is there any DIY macintosh compatable tuning software? From the screen shots of Neptune I can see that it is OSX capable, I am not going to drive to Phoenix or San Fran (two closest "nep"tuners) when I can use a dyno in San Diego for free and I am a capable tuner myself (4 yrs. experience on haltec and motec).

It all comes down to me being cheap, it is a single cam crx street car with OBD1 conversion for crissake my total investment into the car is less than a $1000 (I paid more for new tires than the whole car.)

I searched PGMFI.org, H-T, "other" Honda boards, even Google and cannot find any conclusive answers.

Thanks guys for your help.

 

Neptune is the only tuning software for hondas (that I know of) capable with Mac.


You make have to buy a cheap windows based laptop.

 

I'm interested in this topic. I'm hoping more software will be developed with Macs becoming more popular.

 

Yeah I know, my last PC would die almost monthly. I cannot even slow my G4 down running like 8 applications at the same time.

I think that once you get past the initial cost that any tuner would appreciate the processing power the mac has to offer over a PC.

 

Your pc died monthly because... ? Too much pr0n/spyware? lol
If your saying pc's are not reliable your wrong :-)

 

Vurtual PC will run pretty much all ROM editors on almost any Mac.

Yeah whatever man. I am a novice (at best) comp user, and I just appreciate the simplicity that the mac offers over pc. I delete something and it is gone; on the pc you have to find seven or eight cache's that still have the info. Then when my pc would slow down I had to defrag (?) the hard drive.

On top of that you have to get weekly (if not daily) virus, spyware, or some other computer disease software updates, in the year and a half I have had my mac not ONE single virus-type issue has arisen.

Like I said I am a novice user and can only base my opinion on what little information I have, I just like my mac in 18mos way better than I liked any computer in 28 years.

 

tuning programs do not use a lot of the pc's resources at all...i use a pentium2 at 300 and it datalogs perfect...
