Default ? about saving tunes to your computer's hard drive

I had Brent send me tunes through email, and I saved them to the hard drive, my ? is now that they are saved to the hardrive can I go back and forth with differnt tunes I have saved, or once you load them once are theydone for? Seems kind of silly, but it was something I thought of. The main concern is if I add mods to the car that require a tune, and one day I decide to get rid of that mod that required the extra tune, can I go back to thetunes I had before theextra tune/mods? I am trying to find the correct way to say what Im trying tosaybut I am having a hard time getting it out[&:]

I'm guessing if you did not have the tunes on your computer from previous setups Brenspeed wouldn't have a problem sending you new tunes to go with your setup as long as your a customer. (very bad grammar)

Well if I have a tune for a stock car with a intake saved on my hard drive, and I get tunes for long tubes, and some other mods, say I want to return the car back to just the intake tune and de-mod the car can I play with the tunes back in forth as long as they are saved on my computer? I have 5 seperate tunes but the SCT on holds 3 tunes thats why Im asking. I hope this is a little clearer.

Yes! All you are doing is copying the tune to the tuner, it's still on your computer. You aren't moving the file.

You should be backing up your hd somehow, incase of a crash. I had one crash and it ain't fun.

+1 I have a bunch of tunes saved on my computer from playing with my auto tranny. You can load and reload and modify (which i suggest you do as a new tune so the original isn't corrupted in case it doesn't work) Not sure what tuner you have, but if it is the SCT you can download the program from there web site and do your changes on your computer instead of the handheld. I like the large screen and layout of it that way.
