you need to leave the fpcm off of the OG tune that you read from the ecm. the credits get used when you save the tune with changes. it will let you read the engine/trans/fpcm, they are tied together at that point - you cant only make changes to the engine and trans and just apply those credits. it tells you, you need 3 credits. so when you read the OG tune you need omit it

For my personal knowledge, what's the FPCM?

fuel pump* control module, theres actually some good stuff in there to mess with when you get to running on the edge of the injectors, can bump up the voltage to the pump, change duty cycle, how long it takes to transfer from low demand to high demand

So, thanks to @randeez, I found that it does and did save my logs. How do I attach them to a forum post for others to look at like the cool kids do on the HPT forum?

Can't post them directly to a thread on this forum, not sure why seems dumb. I usually use Snip-It tool to just cut what I want to show and paste it as a picture.

Glad you're getting going at this! Someone in the NBS gang needs to get it together and start learning, all this NNBS crap is too much. *Cough cough @Rocket Man cough cough"

That's what I've discovered. Saw plenty of others on HPT's forum that were caught just the same.

So, can I just re-read my ECM but leave off the FSCM then write my tune? I did find a "Calibration Details" icon in Editor (fourth from the right) where it showed all three modules. Each had, at the bottom "<Double Click to Remove>". So I did that and resaved my tune with it omitted. I'm gonna try to write it one day after work if I get home in time. My HPT account online says I have two credits, so maybe it didn't apply those two yet. The licenses are stored in the interface, so I don't feel 100% about that, although I was in my driveway and online during all of this.

Whale, shit. If I'm gonna boost this heap, I should probably just buy that extra credit. I was replaying my 0-100 scan last night and saw that I had no info for the IDC. I just had all the channels as default, so I guess I need to add IDC to the list.
