South Dakota FAQ

How long does shipping take from South Dakota to your Arlington TX workshop?

Do you accept gm ecm/pcm cloning (e-series) modules from South Dakota?
Yes — we receive modules from Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Aberdeen, Brookings and the rest of South Dakota regularly. With about 1.1 million registered vehicles statewide, full-size pickups & 4x4 SUVs are the bulk of what we see from South Dakota.
Is there a gm ecm/pcm cloning (e-series) shop in Sioux Falls I should use instead?
Most Sioux Falls shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm ecm/pcm cloning (e-series) — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-region north — about 2-3 days each way.
Does South Dakota vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
South Dakota has no statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all South Dakota and federal requirements.
Can you clone a 2019 or newer GM (Global B)?
No. Global B controllers (roughly 2019 and newer) are not bench-cloneable and are excluded from this service. We verify your controller by VIN first — if yours is Global B, we tell you up front before you ship anything rather than after you pay.
Do I have to send a donor module too?
Yes. Cloning copies your original module's data onto a second physical unit, so you send both: your original (which holds your VIN, tune, and anti-theft data) and a matching donor of the same controller family and part number. If your original is completely dead and unreadable, there is nothing to copy — cloning isn't possible in that case.
