Message: If you're referring to the Accel DFI (CalMap) system, it won't connect easily and requires knowledge of fuel table mapping.
For the GM and Ford folks, LT1 Edit, SpeedBrain, those are the more common products that people use with their laptops to control the factory PCM's. Dodge isn't that easy as they have proprietary code within the PCM. (And they don't want just anyone tweaking around with it.)
If you want a decent system that you can plug in and play around with on your laptop, the FAST (SpeedPro) system is one of the best for our systems. At $2300+, it's not cheap.
Haltech is just a nightmare to tune and even though it's less expensive (about $1000), it's just not worth the effort. SplitSecond is releasing their Fuel/Timing unit (FTC-001) which is going to be about $500 retail...but requires knowledge of fuel table mappings.
Playing around with the PCM and the fuel/timing tables on our trucks is not as easy as what you see in the movies or on the GM/Ford/Imports.
