tuning for competitors chip

mjp · #1 Sun, June 13th, 2010, 08:50 PM

Been searching, cant find an answer yet. I currently have a dptuner f5 chip, but would like to have php tuning instead.
Are they able to add tunes to an f5, or do I have to chuck my chip and get a fu2 package?

Thanks for the quick reply. I dont have alot of mods planned for the future, I just want to retune for my current setup. I just need to compare the cost of tuning my f5 against an fu2 package. I know you guys are busy this week, so I'll try and contact you through pm or email.

Thanks again, Micah.

Welcome to the DARK SIDE!

FYI, I say that because I, too, am an active member of FTE. They speak highly of PHP and Bill's tunes, but DP rules the coop over there.

Micah, I just went though the same process and the tunes on my F-5's were written with some sort of code that made it so Bill couldn't overwrite them or even write a tune on a blank position. I eventually got the chips back and just finished selling them and ordering new chips from PHP.

Sad but selling your F-5 on FTE sounds like the best way to go IMO.

Hey firehunter, thanks for the info. How long did it take to sell your f-5?
I talked to Cody about my chip and it might be old enough that it doesn't have those security features.
It's already in the mail and I'll find out soon enough.
Hopefully I'll be on the DARK SIDE real soon

Not long, I sold them both on PSN as I am not a member at FTE so it took a bit longer. Both chips had solid offers within a week.

My F-5's were last updated in Feb of 2009 for reference.
