the 98 & 99 are not identical... you'll need to look up the model number of the programmer and see what it works on.

but yeh.. if you never deprogrammed the old car.. it's worthless.

^^they do that so you cant start your own business with a $350 programmer. which is EXACTLY WHY you should just get a good dyno tune. SO MUCH more effective

Yeah I have a hypertech programmer also I have 98 and I know its only for a 98 and will NOT work on a 99. Hopfully you did take the program out of your other car so you can atleast sell the POS and put the money torwards a real tune. Otherwise if you didnt your really screwed and either track down thw owner or toss it
