would you happen to know the file extension that I am looking for? And I assumed that InlinePro did not keep the file but the file is loaded on my flashpro but locked for editing but I have no clue what I am talking about.

From what you said above is the "map" the same as the calibration file? Or do I need the calibration file to unlock the map? But first I have to kill the troll and get his key and then find the blue diamond which will show me the way to locked map file.

 

MAP = Calibration File; we use them interchangeably. Technically the calibration file contains your IGN/FUL maps and all other settings available to us.

File extension .fpcal

There's an option in Flashpro called 'Read protect calibration'. When tuners click this box, it prevents you from downloading the Calibration file from the ECU. You can only overwrite it (with something else) loosing the tune you have today.

I can give you the calibration I have on my car and you can upload that to get you past emissions. But you'll loose the Inline pro calibration.

Edit: I found the Flashpro troll

 

LMAO over that little pink haired bastard, I am calling him Flash.

So when they do this: "There's an option in Flashpro called 'Read protect calibration'. When tuners click this box, it prevents you from downloading the Calibration file from the ECU. You can only overwrite it (with something else) loosing the tune you have today."
The .fpcal is deleted from the FlashPro(or they delete it) and only exists on the ECU and you cannot down load it or upload it back to the FlashPro?

Correct. You essentially cannot read the 'tune' that's there now. Consequently cannot download and re-upload.

You can try hooking up your Flashpro to your computer and see if there's any MAPs saved on the unit self. Fat-chance, but you never know. The Flashpro unit can hold 2 calibrations in its internal memory (available to download/upload).

 

I'd call up Inlinpro and tell them to send you the tune. Just tell them the predicament you're in and I'd imagine they should help you out. Is it common that tuners "lock" tunes so that people can't modify/change them? It seems absurd to me, but I guess it might not be uncommon..
