Its just like any of the other "tuner boxes" thats been marketed for the CRD.
I'm sure it works but you can do better with a ECM tune.
GDE is the best.
There are also some DIY tunes available if you want to try one of those.

You must manually install the drivers for the MPPS on your laptop to get it to work! Had the same issue early on till I figured out the problem....

I think the problem is that my computer system is much too old for it. Instead of updating computers I went to Tablets.

I used a old laptop that still had Microsoft XP on it.
MPPS installed and worked just fine.
Didn't have to download or install any additional drivers.

Depends on what kind of tablet and its operating system.
If the tablet has a standard USB port and uses a Microsoft OS, then yes, it will probably work.

Microsoft Surface Pro = Probably

iPad = No

Android = Maybe
I'm sure someone has figured out how to run a Windows emulator on a android device.

I had issues running MPPS on Windows 10, so I was forced to use Windows 7 64bit.
It is also important that when doing an install or running it, to right click and "Run as Admin".

I think Windows Surface Pro use Windows 8.1 and it might work.
