Bought wrong I2

Post by 8000father »

Well i messed up and bought the wrong I2 form a guy on line ($200). It's for a Chrysler (I2010) and I have an 03 Silverado (guess i need an I2030). I feel stupid for making such a mistake. I can't find the guy to get my $ back. How screwed am I? When i bought my truck, it came with a Predator already and the guy installed the performance tune. I love it. When i saw this guy seling the I2, jumped without thinking. :blowup:

you can buy a GM license for $149 and will be able to use it on your truck.. http://www.diablosport.com/licenses/

but you'll need to restore the original backup stock tune from the predator to the truck first.

you'll still be in less than full price for the i2 after you add a GM license, and then you can find a buddy with a DCX tool and charge them a few bucks to tune their car :)

Wow. Thank you both so much for the info. Great help. Just so I have this straight. I buy the licence and I can tune anything with OBD2? And more than one? Also my goal is to get better gas mileage on my 03 and still be able to change the tune to something more sporty when I feel like it. Are the preprogrammed tunes in the I2 similar to my Preditor? Would you have advise on how to tune for better mileage? I really t to be faster. Too many tickets.
