pcm flashing??? i have a small problem. i need to know where i can find the software to change fuel map spark curve etc. i have the cable to go from rs232 to the obdII through a VSI class 2 box but my software will only let you read sensor data and diagnostics not reflash new tables created. so i guess im wondering is whats the best one and i dont want one that locks after 2 vin #'s
i have talked with several gm calibration engineers but they said they dont have access to the old software they are using much updated stuff that wont work for 98-02 ls1's so i need some info i guess i have to buy some software any info would help
thanks

Board sponsor, not locked to a VIN... you get 2 licenses when you purchase and the licenses are Year/Engine locked... so if you buy a copy for a 2000 F-Body V8, it'll work on any 2000 F-Body V8 w/no locking to the PCMs

i meant i understand that the program doesnt lock to a certain vin#
it will work with all year orientated pcm's
so which program do you guys like the best hptuner ,ls1edit, efilive?????
EFILive and LS1Edit can only be used on one vehicle per license, unlike those HPTuners can tune any vehicle with the same year/model with one license. HPTuners is the most popular choice and has great customer support ... both internal and among it's clients. LS1-Edit is no longer a choice with LS1 tuning, it pretty much is EFILive or HPTuners. I prefer HPTuners!
