need 97-99 stock tune .hpt file PLEASE!

if there is ANYONE with a HPtuners file for there stock tune, can i PLEASE have it!?

i haven't installed HPtuners on my car yet, and somehow my ecu is fried. i tried getting a replacement but the one i got from napa was just blank. and instead of taking it to GM and having them flash it, i thought i could just use my HPtuners software to flash the blank ecu that i have. any help or input on this would be great, thanks a lot.

HPT can't flash a blank ECU.

just letting you know, alot of times when you purchase a replacement ecu from somewhere like napa, autozone, etc., you have to remove a memory chip from the original unit and install it onto the new ecu. it is a memory chip that is programmed from GM. i know i changed an ecu in a buick this summer at our garage and i had to switch the memory chip into the new ecu. just a though you might want to check into, good luck.

^ Only the case in 95 and below OBD-1 cars, our ECU's don't have removable EEPROMs.

they sell blank ecu's so that GM can profit more by them being the only ones that can program it.

Got a .hpt file! I finally registered on the hptuners website and found one in the tune repository.

the car is going to the dealership, i have a wiring problem somewhere and i can't fix it.
