Default tune question

does anyone know if you get your car dyno tuned without a chip do you loose the tune if your battery dies or you un-plugg it? i know that if you have a chip you dont loose it if the battery looses power. thanks

i don't think you can make any changes to the computer without burning a chip. I would think that as soon as you unplug the tuning software the tune's gone unless you get a chip burnt. not positive tho[&:]
