I'm assuming it works the same way as my old diablosport handheld, in that you have to restore the factory tune onto the vehicle to 'unlock' the tuner from that specific vin.

The Hypertech will "unlock" as soon as you restore the VIN that it has tuned to stock. Then it can be used on another car.

Only one car (VIN) at a time though.
