Default Has anyone successfully TUNED their Unichip?

Ive just returned from a day of head aches at the dyno. The only shop i could find that was an authorized Unichip tuner was RSI of Houston. We were unable to do anything because, I think, the unichip box deleted the stock APS maps as soon as you plug it up to the computer or software.

My question is, has anyone successfully tuned the unichip on the 350Z, because there are dozens of versions of the unichip software for different model cars?

Last I heard was SGP had an older version of the Unichip tuning software that was corrupted by the new programming. Their software had to go back to APS to be fixed. That was a few weeks back.

E-Exec I thought that Brainstorm and Tuan had both tuned the Unichips for the VQ motor. In other words I thought that there have been some tunes, not necessarily a Z, maybe a G in a situation, but close enough.

The MAP should not have been deleted by just plugging it it.. They would of had to upload it or delete it... Plus, we actually tuned my car with 2 year old software and it worked fine... If you call APS, I am sure they can email you the maps they have, and then just download which one you want into the unichip...
