Forscan and EZLynk Tune

So I made a bunch of changes with forscan, and I'm looking at getting some ECM and TCM tuning done. However I saw a note on a different forum about possibly having to revert your forscan settings back to stock in order to tune. Can anyone verify if this is the case? I'm not sure that I backed things up correctly lol.

I have ECM and TCM tuning and didn’t have to revert back to default Forscan when I did it. I guess it would depend what tunes you have and what you changed in Forscan.

Thanks for that information. Would you mind sharing who you went with for tuning? I assume EZLynk for device?

I went with AMDP for tuning on an EZLynk.

You happy with the results? Did your shifting strategy improve?

Very happy with the results. Shifting is much better and no more 3-4 flare as others have reported.

No, you usually do not have to revert FORScan changes before ECM or TCM tuning. Only exception is if you changed PCM or TCM or torque or transmission related as built values then some tuners may want it returned to stock. Otherwise BCM IPC and similar tweaks will not matter.
