I have the V2 & would like to know if i can flash a tune from my laptop to the V2 device & then load the new tune into the car like that? My laptop battery is shot & won't hold a charge long enough for me to do a flash. I'm finally finished working on my car for now & would like to have the speedometer be correct. It's probably going to be a week until I get the new laptop battery also. I do have a SD card that has the tune on it that i want to flash into my car. Is doing this possible & if so how?

Yes, you can, but you have to make sure your V2 firmware is upto date, and you will have to program the BBx settings on your V2.

Latest V7 and V8 software is here: Release-Candidate-10-(updated)-Mar-21-2012 (http://forum.efilive.com/showthread.php?18780-Release-Candidate-10-(updated)-Mar-21-2012)

How to configure V2 for BBx (which includes BBL and BBF):
