L67 swap PCM issue

[Quaraxkad]

IT RUNS!!

12588500v1.0a.bin was the ticket, thank you so much!! I don't know if it's the updated program version or that my software doesn't disable VATS correctly, but it's running! As an experiment, I took the stock bin, loaded it in TunerCATS and made the same changes you listed here. Then compared it bit-by-bit in a hex editor with your 1.0a bin, and there are three different bits. At position #710CB in my version is #99, in yours it's #9A; and at #7D1C6 my version is #01#FF and yours is #02#00. If I feel like experimenting further, I'll try flashing my version and see if the car stills runs. If it *does* then I'll know that the issue was with the version of the bin I was using as a starting point; if it *doesn't* then obviously my software can't handle VATS on this PCM.

In any case, thank you!

Excellent! Glad I could help.

Since you have a method for writing bin files to the PCM, I'd recommend using the V1.0a file as the base tune and then use TinyTuner to edit it for any further adjustments. I've had very good results using TinyTuner, and it won't allow you to open or edit a BIN file that it doesn't fully support.
