So if I am reading right, even if I were to get approval from the vendor to use their binary files, I would still be unable to write to the current chip in that truck if the "vendor code" is different?

The only luck would getting the binary files from the vendor, and writing them to a new blank chip?

Either that or writing completely new files?
Or even sending back to the vendor to get re-burned if necessary?

This being said, this truck likely does not really need changes to tuning. I was asking mostly out of my curiosity. Its an OBS 7.3l modded out pretty good, H2E, intercooler, FASS fuel system, etc...
It actually came in for blowing off the intake hose off of the turbo compressor outlet, And this even has one of those constant torque clamps on it.
