Update.... For anyone running into the same issues I was seeing.
Flash the car with the Whipple Flare tool with all limiters disabled, and read. Then tune from there. Did not require re-licensing the file.

It's not just the VIN that is used for licensing. On my 2016 F-150 I had licensed the factory cal, later on I had the N/A Roush calibration flashed in with their software, when I read that out with HPT the CALID had changed (among other things) and it was no longer licensed...
It's strategy and VIN combination I think. I've wasted some credits on it before.
Has anyone worked with the Level 2 or 3 naturally aspirated Power Packs yet? I can't seem to find anyone local who I can grab a file from
15-17 Power Packs don't include a CJ manifold. PP3 uses the GT350
My bad... That's what I meant.
Does HP Tuners not have copies of these that can be put into the repository? I'd think that they would have had to have made a copy for testing?? Is is possible someone can PM me?
Question - I have saved down a few posted Whipple read outs, should I be licensing the file and flashing the entire OS when I flash it in, or should I just be copying over the differences to my tune and flashing?
There are some differences between Ford strategies. e.g. stock 2012 Mustang GTs do not support downstream IAT2 temps in the stock strategy. A lot of blower companies use strategies that support this parameter for obvious reasons (Roush etc). When you change strategies, you will need to license the new OSID. Instead, I would suggest copying over the changes from the Whipple reads to your present strategy. Understanding that there may be some parameters your current strategy does not support.

Thanks - I guess that is my concern is that Whipple added some logic in their calibration that is required in order for the parameters they have programmed that I can see to function correctly, and that a direct copy over to my strategy will not work as I will be missing any of this additional logic. I recall reading a post where someone licensed and wrote an entire Roush strategy and the vehicle wouldn't even start.
One thing I'd like to mention is that a considerable amount of work went into adding support for these calibrations in our software and there is no one else who can do it. Please bear that in mind when you are asked to license that file.
What year is your car?The ones I have seen are S550 specific
Mine is a 2015 s550
