    I had a closer look at the supported vehicles, and you're right Erik...

    x 2 on the glasses !!! Knew the vehicle was supported, and knew V1 worked on 2005 and prior - just didn't check for exceptions !!

    Thanks for the fresh set of eyes Erik !!

    No, unfortunately, it's a little more than that...

    V1->V2 upgrade (V1 purchased before Sept 18, 2006)
    V1->V2 upgrade (V1 purchased after Sept 17, 2006)

    When was your V1 purchased...?

    The best alternative is do a 0411 swap and use your V1 to tune it that way. Save the $$ on a V2 upgrade (but its WAAAAY better than a V1 fwiw) and put it towards a 0411 PCM (50-75 bucks) and do a PCM swap. Better driveability and the 0411 is a LS1 PCM so you can run all the COSs.
