Hey all,

I used to have an 04 cobra with a 2.8 custom tune. I sold that car and now have an 03 cobra. My tuner is now gone and a different shop bought the dyno and all of the files. I called and asked if I could get the tune on a new x3/sf3 and they said that it would not work with the my new 03.:shrug:

Any truth to this. They said they would load the file but it wouldn't work anyway? My new ride doesn't have any of the mods, but just wanted a backup of this tune for when the time comes.

I know the car may have to actually be tweaked, but just wanted to confirm if the file would even work.

The tune is married to a specific vin number so no it would not work. The files are also uneditable you have to rewrite it completely from scratch so that's why they said it will not work. Sorry dude!
