    Default VIN swap

    Can and how can I put one tune with a vin to another vehicle with the same os? Do I just change the vin?
    Use one tune for more than one vehicle.

    You can put a tun in as many vehicles that you want, there is no limit. Of course you will need to have a license for each different PCM you load it into. Be observant, most vehicles have different builds that would not readily accept a generic tune. Different years, gears, engine sizes and transmissions to start with all require specific builds. Note the segment numbers and see how many different combinations for a certain operating system exist.

    Same OS? Just flash it. The VIN isn't written to the PCM as part of a normal flash.

    Who needs a MAP sensor on a supercharged LS6 anyway.
