Default Swapping trans to an A4 how do you program the computer?

My car is a 98 fbody m6, I am putting in a A4. I have the ls1 edit. I am swapping with a friend he has a 2001 fbody A4. The computer and harnest are different from 98 to 01 so we cannot swap. I will be doing a pin out swap removing on the need trans wireing. I need to know if its just as simple as switching the a4 or m6 selection in the speedo section of the edit? I really don't think so. If anyone has the answer please respond tonight thanks

Darren

I don't understand, Sigment Id? I didn't think I could use a file from another car because the vin is different?
