I heard the 98's were free but do you still have to get a license ? Or will just plugging in allow to start tuning?

Connect your V2 or V1 and check to see if the stream has been activated. If so you're done, if not contact EFI_Live.

Plug and tune away. 98s are free.

I plugged in to read the calibration and it worked fine. I just tried to load a tune in and it said i need a liscense. how do i make sure this is a 98 like the guy said it was?

I tried that in scan tool and tune tool and it did nothing. also while trying to load a tune, the connection keeps getting lost. what causes that as I have checked all conections?

When you read the controller what PCM type was selected? That will be the definitive answer ;)

Please also be aware that it is only 97/97 LS1 (Camaro and Corvette) that don't require a license. All other 97/98 vehicles (Vortec etc) will attract a license usage.

I was told that 98 Trans ams and camaro's did not need them. Is this correct?

Who else can help me with this issue? I gave the car back to the guy with the car as I ran out of time to fool with it before Hurricane Gastav comes in . I will just need to have the activation code for next tuesday when I come home to get the car tuned.

If you PM'd Blacky he is back tonight I believe. If you don't have it tomorrow afternoon your time PM him again. Please ensure you have sent the Serial Number for your FlashScan v2 interface.
