Can you convert an auto ecm to a manual ecm?

I have a manual L61+M62+GM Flash. Now I'm going to buy hptuners soon so i can do the fake 2.5bar tune. A buddy of mine got a hold for me a 2003+ automatic ecu off a wrecked Cavalier. Would I be able to flash the whole ecm with the OS and stock tune from a manual ecm?

Save your money. It might be worth something someday.

Yes, but you will have to license both ECU's.

Would i be able to get the os/tune from the hp's repository and just reflash the auto computer without having to waist two credits?

No, you have to license the tune that's on it, and the tune you are flashing to it, no way around it.

Ok I see what you're saying. I guess getting the ecm for free is gonna cost me an extra few credits.
