well no **** about that lol

i thought there was some sort of process to link your car with the ecu. i haven't looked into it to much,i just know you cant slap the spare ecu in,start the car and go.

i haven't picked it up from ethan yet. i still owe him 50$ for it lol i bought some 1st gen headlights and his ecu,i just havent saw him too much to give him the 50$

he said he had an HP tune on the spare ecu,i think.

You cannot just "swap" ecu's and the car works But if your buddy works at a dealer, have him use the tech 2 and you'll be ok. It needs the f.... a car relearn and a clutch relearn. Then you have to add the vin etc to it. I learned the hard way.....

I have 1 ghost cam tune and one normal tune

You can have as many tunes saved as you want. I always thought it would be cool to make a "valet" tune if you went to a casino or something. Rev limit at 3k and no power in it.
