Can I keep I2 for new truck

Post by USMC devil dog »

Right now I have my intune I2 on my 2014 Silverado ltz 5.3, however I just purchased a 2017 Silverado high country 6.2 with 8 speed trans, my question is can I restore my 2014 and sell it and put the i2 on my new 2017 with 6.2 and 8 speed trans.

rather I decide to do this or not whats the benefit of upgrading to the i3, from the i2 if I already own the i2?

thanks in advance

yes it will work on the 2017 truck after you unlock/reset it and update it to all the latest updates..

but only the engine can be tuned on that new 2017 truck.

the 8 speed tranny can not be tuned/is not accessible on the new vehicles.

2017 8 speed tcm is locked down by GM, there is no way to tune it without removing it from the vehicle, cracking it open, and modifying it.

yes, for 2016's..

but for 2017, GM changed their TCM encryption method, and 2017 8 speed TCM's can NOT be tuned...
