I would, but I am an electrical retard. I would end up blowing up something somehow and then I can kiss my warranty buh-bye...
Actually its not hard, you've got a couple of the power wires to connect, a ground, the hardest part is the 10 injector wires, but just label them with tape as you cut and you'll be fine, the connector you put them in is label and numbered so its not bad. And you can either get a base tune card from sean or leave it unplugged and custom tune it on the dyno.
And really there is no cheap place to get it , Sean doesn't mark the Vec 2 up like hypertech or other programming companies, so is you do find it cheaper, it may be $50 - $100 , but the vendor may also make it up in the dyno tuning, so be careful, tuning at the most shouldn't be more than $200-$300.

Sean is one super guy, my wife has been talking to him for about a week now and he is so helpful and understanding its unreal. First off you want probably find any deals on the Vec II, as he only makes a few at a time , and unlike someone like hypertech that makes thousands and keeps there cost down, naturally the fewer you make the higher the cost.
As far as dyno and programming, depending on what you have done when you order your Vec II just tell Sean what you have done and he can program it for that , no charge. Or you can order it and he can email you a program and you can download it yourself. It will probably be 95% perfect, but if you want exact programming, then yes you will have to find someone that understands the vec and dyno and program it for you, or you can also have it dynoed, email the dyno sheet to Sean and he can write a program for it or email it to you, and download it yourself, or even dyno it before you order and it will come programed if you send the dyno to Sean and ask him to pre program.
I forget who had it done, sorry still alseep just done the 800+ overnight, but they installed the Vec on a QC with CAI and no cats and got about 450hp to the ashpalt. Just remember your largest gains will be on bottom and mid range where the trucks are so rich. Hope this helps.

DO you need any thing special to down load the program and install it yourself. I had a power commander for my 04 Harley softail and the unit came with a program so you could put in any program you wanted. They have a ton on the web site and you just find the one closest to your mods or you could go and pay around $200 and they would put it on a dyno and get it perfect. Is the VEC II this way? thnaks in advanve Phillip
I guess its sorta like the power commander but alot more programmable, with timing , fuel , RPM adjustments. He can give you a basic program or you can tell him what upgrades you have and he can write you a program. You do have to have a cable to link, but Joanne bought it and I can find out or you can ask Sean when you order. The vec comes with a disc for downloading and programming that gives you alot of info.

It was my quad cab that got the 450 HP and 476 TQ at the rear. The major benefit though seems to be the increased power at all RPMS, especially the low end. My black reg cab got 455 HP and 505 TQ with CAI, no cats, and dual borla xr1's. It'll roast 4th gear hard at the track.

I ordered my VECII on monday and I was told that the VECII unit itself will write to the cards and has a serial port to load the program from a computer. They also sell reader/writers for programming the cards away from the vehicle. I had to order a reader/writer with a USB port because my laptop does not have a serial port.04SRTRAM said:
i ordered 1 last week, and he said they were about a week behind, (several on order). they are awesome to talk with, very friendly. they are going to write me a basic program and he also said if i wanted to make a change to email them the dyno and they would write one for me.

Ordered my VEC II today!
Sean was very helpful and I lucked out that someone is coming in to Roe tomorrow with the same mods that I have for a VEC II dyno tweak. So Sean said he would send the same program my way when they send out my unit
Expected delivery date is this Friday...giving me a nice project for the weekend
Thanks Sean! Great doing business with you.
