HI.

I need to do a segment swap for a swap project I'm doing.

I have a PCM with automatic calibration, OS 12592618, controller P59. 2005 Silverado with 4L60E. I need to convert it to manual.

I haven't found a tune file compatible with mine. The only manual tune I found is in .tun format (Efilive) and I can't open it because I have HPTuners.

I need somebody with Efilive who can open the file and convert it to .BIN so I can send it to support to be segment swaped.

OR, If somebody has a manual tune I can use, I would be very grateful. I need it to be OS 12592618


Thanks in advance.

I could give it to you as a cal file, but unless you know somebody with Jet DT or Tuner Cat and a PCM to load it in and extract it as a Bin file, it will not do you any good. If HP was a half decent outfit, since they don't allow you to do your own segment swaps, they should have good library of them, to do your swaps from. If all else fails you could send me your PCM and I could load the M6 File in it and extract it out as a Bin, then load your stock file back in it and sent it back to you. You'd just owe for the postage and a beer and a slice of pizza, since Bill's girlfriend Crager says charging any money constitutes soliciting

Joe,

If you want to send me the .cal I will convert and send the .bin to him.

Yep segment swap's are def needed in HPT! There is a hackish way to do it with HPT though...

I have a pretty good database of files but most of them consist of 4l80 files since most that have come to us are going from an m6 or 4l60 to a 4l80, this one just happened to be one combination I didn't have on hand, it happens.

I have only good things to say about HPTuners.

I have always received great customer service, fast email replies from you and a nice software.

Thanks

All the expertise there, and you couldn't convert a Cal or Tun File to a Bin? Or just were not willing?

Is this a serious question? We are hptuners, not tunercat, not efilive, how exactly am I supposed to "convert" a cal or tun file to a bin?

If you are recommending we hack efilive's or tunercats proprietary formatting, no we will not be doing that anytime soon.

Seriously Bill, What kind bull excuse is that? What do you mean hack Efi Live's or TunerCats proprietary formatting? Its called reverse engineering, just like you reverse engineer GM's Ford's and Chrysler operating systems. So if you're going to try to make an excuse, for just offering mediocre tech support, you'll have to find a better reason then that. I can give you a great example Microsoft offers many software packages, that will open their competitors files, you don't hear anybody screaming, that their proprietary format is being hacked. There are plenty of file convertor out there on the market, if the demand for automotive file convertors was bigger, I'm sure somebody would address it, and offer something to fill the void. Yes you're right, you are Hptuners, that why you responded with a lame excuse, instead of coming back and saying, "I talked to our software engineers and they said they'd look into seeing if we could break new ground and have our tuner open any format"
PS If I need to explain to you, how to convert the file, you should find a new job, they'll be looking for people to pick up oil along the coastline, shortly, it will part of OB's stimulus package.
