With EFI, I can tune any LS1 based vehicle. In fact, I can load up any VIN or flash on my PCM and run it in a different vehicle under the same license. That would allow mw to sell my 03 truck and use the same PCM on a newer model truck or SUV if I desired.

You will be able to read and modify as many .bin and .tun files as you like, but you can only Flash 2 PCM's with the standard license.

Excellent. Can you and how much does it cost to add licenses? For example if i purchase a new truck. Or do you have to upgrade to the professional versions, etc?

Licenses are $99 a piece. You will not have to upgrade to the pro version.

I bought EFI-live V6 scanner when it came out to scan with.
I tune my '98 PCM with edit, only because flashscan doesnt support '98's.....YET
When V7 came out I upgraded within the "30 days" and they gave me 4 licences. All that for a $200 upgrade.
This covers everything, except.....
you can tune ANY LS-based PCM, you are not limited to year/body style
AND! up to 16 licences per flashcscan box.

So if you buy the Flashscan personal scan & tune package for $699, that's all I need to be able to tune up my own personal vehicle (01 Sierra 5.3) and one other LS1 based vehicle of my choice and each add vehicle license costs and add $99?? I am new to this, I just want to get this straight before I spend that kind of $$$ Plus I may go in on half with a friend w/ a diff year truck. THANKS!!
