HELLO EVERYONE IN NEED OF GUIDANCE. I CURRENTLY HAVE A 02 CAMARO ls1 ECU MANUAL TRANS AND IT IS ALREADY TUNED TO MY ENGINE SETUP, BUT NOW I AM CURRENTLY SWITCHING OVER FROM MANUAL TRANS TO AN AUTOMATIC 4l60e. MY RESEARCH HAS LEAD ME TO BELIVE ALL I WOULD NEED TO DO IS PERFORMED A SEGMENT SWAP FILE THAT HAS SAME OPERATING SOFTWARE WITH AN AUTOMATIC FILE THIS TRUE? AND ALSO SHOULD I SAVE MY TUNE FILE AND RELOAD THAT ENGINE TUNE TO THE ECU AFTER THE SEGMENT SWAP. PLEASE ANY GUIDANCE WILL HELP THANK YOU.

It's better to flash the computer with a real automatic OS if you ask me, I wouldn't segment swap for this.

Then once that is done you could just do a copy and paste of the engine side of the tune into that new automatic file.

so please correct me if im wrong find a tune file in the repository section of hp tuners with the same OS software but in a automatic file and then paste over my engine portion of the tune ? also i noticed since i have a 2 bar speed density tune in it it says on 'security key" 0x1bba (os mod locked) does this mean the ecu is locked by tuner ?

You couldn't do a segment swap even you want to now that I know you have a 2 bar upgraded tune file. The segment swap would never work with that, it has to be a stock OS.

I'd probably find another computer or try to have yours flashed with a VIN/OS that is for an automatic car. Then create a new tune from there. Having no idea what is actually done to the vehicle and all the things involved, I can't say exact what you need to do and it's not really something I could do over a keyboard. Kinda need to be hands on with that one to make it all correct again after things are changed.
