Doesn't look like VitViper is selling the KTuner stage 1 package any more. Is there any other vendor that has a similar package? If not, is there a vendor that sells without sales tax and free shipping to California?
Be advised... Vit's Stage tunes are locked to the car the tuner was sold to when the bundle was purchased. It's not like a basemap... and the locked nature of the Stage 1 map isn't just that you can't make adjustments. It's a 1 car only tune, to the benefit of the original buyer.
I might have it wrong. It is, in some way locked down. Perhaps it is device specific.isnt it locked to the device?
Yeah, I tried to open the tune in NotePad hoping that I could change the Serial Number assigned to it, but it opens in machine language. I doubt that KTuner would allow me to swap the serial numbers on my two KTuner units.His tunes are locked to your ktuner dongle Serial Number. There is a sticker on it with it. However, the ECU/software part numbers need to match to be able to use a stage 1 file on another SI.
you could try reverse engineering the file to see if you can inject the new SN or change the SN on your ktuner dongle using factory programming tools but Ktuner wouldn't like that lol. but knowing ktuner the sn is probably encrypted using an unkown checksum that you will need to figure out while also having a checksum on the file itself that will also need figured out. Doubt it's plain text. possible but it's easier to do it through them lol
KTuner did mention that they were in talks with Vit to bring his Stage 1 and 2 maps to KTuner as part of the tunes offered with every unit. I don't know if this will happen or not, but with Vit defaulting on his obligations to his remaining customers, it sounds like this is my only hope. I'm rooting for you, @KTuner !

Yeah... a few months back before I ended up bumping up my ignition and doing some data logs myself... I e-mailed them and asked if I could just purchase a stage 1 tune a la carte, as I hadn't bought my V2 from them and didn't know of the deal back when I bought it from RV6 during the day after Thanksgiving sale. They wouldn't sell. I figured me throwing them some money for e-mailing me a file locked to me would be worth their time, but no go. Hell, I wouldn't mind flashing to see what all the fuss is about. All I ever really wanted was a little more power up top.This would be awesome!! And a great selling point for @KTuner![]()
