  • Can I use a 98 computer on my 99

    I bought my friends 98 camaro V6, and was wanting to get my 99 camaro tuned at Texas Speed.

    I was wondering instead of taking my computer out and not being able to drive my car,
    Can I just take his out(which I'm parting anyways) and tune it to my specifications?

    I wouldn’t think so but hey, what I would recommend is call Texas Speed and ask them. They would be able to tell you a definite answer considering they are the ones you plain on going through.

      It would have to be completely reprogrammed with the 99 program, and even then I don't know if the pinouts would be the same. The drive-by-wire stuff obviously isn't present in the 98, and I don't know if the 98 PCM would even have those pins available for it.

          That does show how they're designed, but not really if they're interchangeable. 97, for example, is different than 95-96 but it swaps in fine.
