All are currently still able to do so...even using RC2. Even when the restriction comes out, you do not have to upgrade the firmware on your V2 to the latest stuff (but you also cannot upgrade your software to get bug fixes, new tables, etc).

Fantastic! Was worried about the future of a couple tunes already done now that I need another box. Thanks for the info Erik.

Any deleted tunes you currently have will remain unaffected with the restrictions in place, even of you use the latest and greatest firmware/software. This is my understanding. The new restricted software cannot undo what is already done to the tune behind the scenes so to speak. Am I right?

If you can change the file(s) now, you wont have any issues down the road. That said, if you have a new customer come in, you wont be able to use their stock tune and delete anything (in the US).

Correct, there is no way for EFILive to go into an existing tune and change those tables back. I imagine there could be a way, but AFAIK this will NOT be the case.

Great! Thanks again for all the info

So if I upgrade my software and firmware now the restrictions will not apply correct? Also when the software and firmware updates come out that have these restrictions will you let us know so if we wish not to upgrade we do not?

EFILive has NOT made a public announcement regarding Diesel tuning restrictions yet (except for the LML which will debut without these features enabled in the USA). Believe me, they will make a big announcement before they do so.

There was just a swim release last week, was that it? Will there be a warning on the site before you update to let you know?

Release notes always list the changes made in our software.
