Default Reprogramming a Powerloader?

Does anyone know if I can get a friends Powerloader reprogrammed so I can use it on my car? How much does it cost? Where do I send it? How long does it take?

thanks in advance :cheers:

Im pretty sure you cant...I think they are vin specific....and you have to send it back to them to retune and I dont think they will let you switch cars.
anyone else know for sure?

No you can't..and why would you even consider a TTS Powerloader when there so many other programming options for you now...Diablo Predator, LS1 Edit, Ed Wright at www.fastchip.com..and besides Steve Cole locks his programs so NOBODY else can even touch the program.. :yesnod:

BOO! Well I thought it might be worth a shot, since a friend is selling his car and has the powerloader. I was hoping to get a cheap but good reprogram.

The Powerloader should go with the car, in case the new owner had to replace the PCM!
