Good choice. If you returned the Superchip to stock, that is all you need to do. Why give it away, I use my old Superchip to read codes.

Also, you will know when you try to install it into the other truck if it is vin locked or not.

GO DP-TUNER.

That's all you need do, and keep it, makes a good code reader and talk you buddy into getting the DP-Tuner to start with. You'll see what we mean when you get yours installed...
