First off it is a tool here is what HP Tuners says about the scanner:

So you're probably thinking, what else could there be for a professional tuner? Well, read on...

The VCM Suite has certain features that a professional tuner may find more useful. It includes some of the following extra capabilities.

VCM Editors Flash utility allows not just calibration reflashing and automated recovery, but entire VCM/PCM image reflashing. This means that you are free to make any operating system or calibration level modifications and flash those to the VCM/PCM. This has many uses for the advanced enthusiast, serious tuner or engine swap shop, allowing complete control over the VCM/PCM software environment.

The VCM Editor also allows for increased vehicle support for tuners, and also access to extra VCM/PCM operating system code modifcations. Tuners also have the option to modify VIN's, a useful feature for mail order VCM's.

I use mine to tune my GXP, my Sierra Denali, my son's GMC pick up, and his 2004 GTO with an LS6 engine. I work with Lyndon Wester on all the tunes. He sends me a tune via email and it takes 2 minutes to install it. Both the HP Tuners and Westers Tune are available from Dejon a supporting vendor.
