why 6 positions?

I have been trying to pare down my choices to 6, and it occured to me why that number

It just happens to be the maximum amount of memory on the TS Performance chips only allows for 6 positions at 224K bytes each.

I figured it was something logical, not just that 6 was someones favorite number. I do wish it was more because I can't make up my mind.

You joke but I was wondering if that was possible just have the chip that wasn't being used set to stock.

[cleatus12r]

Not possible. You can only install one chip at a time. Besides, "stock" on a chip is not "straight-from-the-PCM-stock". Stock on a chip is a burned position and still bypasses the PCM's internal memory.

You could, however, buy two chips and switch back and forth between the two. I haven't looked to see what kind of truck you have, but switching chips in a 95-97 isn't the easiest thing to do in a hurry, but it could be done. That way, you'd have a total of 11 tunes plus a "stock".

I know it wouldn't work I have seen how the hardware works, besides inmy truck there isn't enough mods to really use more than 6 spots,

But justt think a whole little row of mad max knobs on the dash you could turn to dial in the performance. I would have to add a couple of rows of toggles, gauges, and buttons so it would be like I was in a cockpit.:thumbs up yellow:

We could certainly set you up with a row of knobs... You could get 8 or 10 for the price of a chip. ;)
