I agree except for one little part.
here, I fixed it...

The hard part is looking at the large amount of hex data and knowing what is what. That is what HPT has done, they found the obvious tables and gave you software to edit them. The other tables are not so obvious, and thats why they have put it off altogether for more than a year. It is also likely that Westers has found the tables and changes them in a hex editor, and saves the .bin file. That is why he can edit things that are not in HPT.

Here you can see where the software identified a potential table within the hex data, and how to edit it:

I'm a computer guy, so I understand much of what is going on here. If I had before and after files to compare a BSR or Westers tune and a stock tune, I could likely identify the tables that they have figured out and replicate it. I'm not going to purchase HPT until they offer more for my car. There is a popular tuner not far from me. I could get him to give me a read of before and after my BSR, then I could start to tinker a little with the code. The setup from EVC is expensive for me just to tinker, but if you guys are really committed to paying for results maybe we could pool our resources and work on our own tune.
