Default -----> NEED ASAP: APEX POWER FC SOFTWARE <-----

I have an appointment with Church Automotive Testing this weekend and I need the Apex software to tune my Apex Power FC. If you have the software I can borrow to download on my laptop or if you have a Laptop I can borrow for the weekend I'll really appreciate it and be in debt to you forever. I'll even take you out to dinner and buy you some drinks.
Thanks-Gil
BTW: For the record I will be tuning my ITR so it is ITR related

Craig has it? since when?

If anyone does indeed get the actual version of powerexcel, post that ****. I've looked for it for years... FC-Datalogit is the alternative, http://www.fc-datalogit.co.nz/

I don't think he wants to share the wealth


How can I "share the wealth" when I signed a contract to not "<U>share</U> the wealth"....??? ("sharing" is illegal BTW) Plus, Apexi "owns" the box I use to interface with the PFC.

But if you'd like to set up a dyno appointment I'll gladly get your car/tune in order.
