If you had the tuning software on a laptop, hooked up to the OBD, and on the internet with an aircard, you could use a desktop sharing software where the tuner could run the laptop remotely.

Got mine today, took all of 5 minutes to setup. I did not swap to the shorter cable yet as it was cold and getting dark. I'm impressed, this is a neat piece of hardware! :thumbup:

I travel a lot and often find myself having to stay in some not so nice places. I love the Hydra's built in no start feature but it was always a pain having to remember to take the switch with me when leaving the truck. Now it's not an issue.

Thanks to PHP for continuing to come out with innovation products for our 7.3!

Yup, set it to no start, walk away and unless someone knows to pull the chip, it is not starting.

Then you unplug your Cyclops and plug back in your switch, or just remove the chip. No big deal.

We really like the security features of the Cyclops. It's a very nice benefit, and as Joe said... If your phone gets jacked up (or jacked), just reconnect the switch or remove the chip.

For those that are interested, we are also adding new "No-Accel" and "Auto-Cutoff" tunes to the lineup. The No-Accel tune is basically a dead pedal. The truck will idle, but there is no acceleration. The Auto-Cutoff will cause the vehicle to shut off as soon as the brake pedal, throttle, or shift level is touched. With both programs, the vehicle can idle unattended but prevents driving away. Don't forget that we also offer automatic Hi-Idle on any custom tunes.

As a final thought, we will be offering a true Automatic Exhaust Brake feature on the 25, 40, and 65 Towing programs. These tunes MUST HAVE improved Coast Clutch assemblies (additional friction and steel plates) in order to run correctly. If you have a stock transmission, we strongly advise AGAINST running these tunes as it can (and will) cause accelerated failure of the Coast Clutch assembly.

All of the new tunes will start rolling into the library over the next 30-45 days, with the most popular calibrations being available first. If you have any questions, please contact PHP tech support for more information.

Take care and have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

How long for the vdh2 calibrations. I could really use these.

All I can say is that it's no longer a secret and soon every Tom, Dick, and Harry will have somehow figured it out and claimed it as theirs. It's been difficult keeping it unannounced since March of 2011 for that reason.....

But then again, if it weren't for your generosity, support, and software advancements I wouldn't have dreamed of developing it in the first place.

I wish you the best in business and personal life in 2015 dude!

Cody has been working with us for nearly 5 years and is a very good tuner. If it wasn't for his irrational attachment to living in Montana, we'd love to have him in GA with us. :D Unfortunately for us, Cody has decided to take a hiatus from tuning and focus on other things.

Cody, you are a great friend and a sharp guy. I greatly appreciate everything you done for us over the last several years. You always have a home with us. :D

I PROMISE to get down there this Spring for a while. I've amassed quite a bit of vacation time and I'm simply waiting to finish up a project. I'll bring a few parts along as well. I haven't forgotten about them.
What part of Montana are you from? Before my surgery this morning I was looking on my tablet and saw this and thought it was awesome!! I'm in for a combo too I am buying a Hydra as soon as I sell my CS. Thank you for this awesome ability!
