Default My truck was stolen..ugggh

Anyways they found it and its in repairable shape thankfully. Effin idiots stole my superchips 3865 though. i had it tuned to my truck so i dont think there is anything they can do with it. i know it was a dumb place to keep it but i had just put the fuel mileage tune on it when i went out of town. and i kept forgetting to take it out. so now its gone and im stuck with this tune... what are my options?? Can i buy another one with it tuned already or do i need to take it to the dealer to get flashed or what... please help

thanks

First of all, report it stolen to SC so they can blacklist the S/N on it so if they try to update it or sell it and someone else updates it, they will know.

I think you will have to take your truck to the dealer to have the PCM reflashed and then buy another tuner

illegals lol my mom got her side window smashed in on her lexus, tried to pop out the ignition and messed it all up, and then stole a whole bunch of stuff (all while out of town on vacation)

The park she was at had a ranger and she told him, and they caught them the next day hiding in the bushes right where she was parked....3 illegals, one wearing her womens Armani sunglasses lol

Glad you got it back. If you like the tune that you have then I'd wait to have it reflashed till I wanted to change something.
I work in Houston and constantly worry about theives. Looks like the thieves are looking for new King Ranches more now according to some of the locals that I talked to.
