Problem ... need advice / guidance
To make a long story short ...
I was trying to get my PCM tuned for a blower when we found out that my previous tuner locked my tune/computer.
We tried both HPtuners and Ls1-edit and both times access was denied. I can't get a hold of my old tuner (he dropped of the face of the earth).
I'm now stock with a locked tune and I emailed Chris at HPtuners. He said that the dealer won't be able to reflash my computer back to stock with the lock. Instead instructed to
I don't want to go this route .. might as well get a new PCM. Is there anyone who would be able to unlock my PCM ?
My stock Program is for an A4 but now I have a T56 in the car ? I had a tune for the M6.
I'm kind of stuck here. What can I do ?

Poor Zoltan...
I think he's had more problems than I have had.
I would try Ebay first, than maybe a junk yard in LA?
I tried looking thru a "PICAPART" in our area, they don't have any cars that are like ours. I asked someone that worked there, and he said that our type of cars get snatched up quick. Go figure
Good luck.
