swap LS2 Computer?
I've been reading a lot about TM and what it does and that it can be programed out. My question is. Lets say I keep the car stock and I just get the car dyno tuned and get the TM removed from the computer. Can I just swap in a stock LS2 Computer if I need to take the car in for warranty work? The TM in my A6 is pretty bad. I've never had a car w/ 400+hp that can't just break the wheels loose if I stomp it. lol I had a 05 MN6 Z51 Vette and it wasn't much better, but obviously being a stick it was pretty easy to break the tires loose, but still it got traction faster then my other cars. TM sucks! 
What I'd want to do is buy a 2nd computer for my car and get the dyno tuning installed onto that computer, then if I have to take the car into the shop, I'd just reinstall the stock computer.

if you had a 05 you could do this. i got my car tuned by lg and just sent them the engine computer. i have a mn6 z51 so it is a little diffrent as when they tune your auto they will change shift points ect. so i doubt you could do this.
