What brand of flash tuner is it mate? Most flash tune devices are VIN # locked to a particular vehicle. To use the flash tuner on ya new car you would need to have it unlocked from the old one and re locked to your new one.

As buckTooth said....It will be Vin locked.
Also if i have read this right, What the hell are you doing trying to flash a six cylinder tune into a eight? |

its the first flash box, sct or something i think, i wanted to get a custom tune for my new car with this box so i returned the xr6 to stock thinking it would unlock the tuner, cant it be used on 5 cars then has to be unlocked?

No, It has to be unlocked from each vehicle before being locked to a new one. This can be done upto 5 times before it has to be sent back to the manufacurer to be rest again for another 5 vehicles.

Correct Buckie. Also, if it has been preloaded with tunes for an XR6, they are never going to work on the 8.
