Question on power programmers

[JT ZR-Won]

I heard that once a car is programmed via Hypertech, that programmer can't be used on another car..........is this true?? That sounds strange to me......

My understanding is that in order to re-use the power programmer on another car, the stock program has to be reloaded from the power programmer into the car.

Apparently, the ECM has a VIN associated with it, and if you try to use the programmer on multiple cars it will not let you.
