Hello All,
Granted, as I start this post I will say that this is regarding Dodge compatibility, and yes, I am aware it isnt available yet. (waiting (im)patiently)
Does HP Tuners STRICTLY use the VIN in the PCM to determine what "year" the car or PCM is? The reason I ask is that I frequently run 2004 Vipers with 2006 PCM's to gain knock sensors, and in some cases, just availability issues. However, Both PCM's will accept a VIN from 2003-2006, and work correctly, as they are both VPW controllers and virtually identical in every other way.
Basically, what I am asking is if HP tuners releases a system for the 2003-2004 cars, and then 2005-2006 is different because of the knock sensors in HPT, will I be restricted to not using Knock sensors on the 03-04 cars because of their VIN's even if they ACTUALLY have 05-06 PCM's in them?
In which case, should I start programming any PCM's in this predicament as 2006's rather than 2004's, and vice versa?
