Default Vinci Tuner Quesiton

Does the Vinci tuner lock the PCM, or can it be modified with HPtuners or anything along those lines.

Speed Inc. in Schaumberg Illinois told me if I wanted to have them tune my Gto, I would have to have the stock program in the car. They told me that HP tuners and the hand helds are not compatible. I do have the Vinci tuner for my Gto, and it gives me a very noticable difference over stock.

The Vinci Tuner is a program all by itself. What do you want to do to the Veh? I have the tuner and it is awsome.Compared to Diablo and the other, the Vinci Tuner has 7 diffrent Custom installed programs that you can use for your particular application.

Vinci does not lock your PCM. It only changes various paramaters in your stock tune, timing, missfire etc. You can read those changes with EFILive.

If you want to sell your Vinci, you will have to reflash your Pcm to stock Ie: whatever Vinci read when you first downloaded the stock file from your PCM.
