Can the HPPIII be shared, how does it work?

*Thread Hi-Jack* HA, Split the topic-HJ

how does the HPP-III work -- I mena I understand what it does and interfaces and all -- but is there anything on it that would keep you from tkaing your HPP_III to someone else's same model vehicle and programming theirs etc.....?

Someone I know thinks that it might somehow sync with your CPU and make it only work with your particular vehicle, but neither of us were sure....

So, how does it function in that regard? I know a few guys that would go in on one with me for S-10's if we could share it.

The HPPIII downloads the vehicles VIN and stock programming, so it can not be used on another vehicle until this data is cleared by uploading the information back to the vehicle.

You can't share them, but you can pass them along. When you originally program with it, it stores your factory PCM settings. When the HPPIII has a PCM stored in it, it will not allow you to use it on another vehicle. So you can't 'share' it. But, if you reload your factory PCM settings (emptying the buffer in the HPPIII), it can then be used on another vehicle.

I bet it could be done. Just make a program on your computer to make the hpp think it's your truck, change it back, then ready for the next truck. You can store each person's truck on your pewter.

But that would require effort and knowledge of the stock PCM programming. Two things I don't have.

I assume you're looking for one on Ebay? Just make sure you have the ability to return it in case the seller doesn't realize that it can't be used on more than one vehicle at a time.

I already got one. I don't do such kind of unscrupulous activity.

I got a HPP III new, used 2 times and installed Powerdyne SC and it was recommended to not use any advance programming such as HPP III which I reprogrammed the stock info back. In other words I now have no use for the HPP III, It's a model 30019 for 03's if anyone is interested...
It actually worked great, liked the improved shift capabilities and overall peformance but of course between the HPP III and SC the SC has alots more to offer, in power of course..

I'll probably hold off for a while. My prerunner bar is liquidating my Christmas present allowance...so maybe in the spring.

Does anyone know if the power programer for 1997 vehicles allowed you to recalibrate your speedo? Thanks.
