Alpine Tune switching between stock and Tune

I was hoping somebody on the forum had experience with switching the tune on the Alpine tune from Stock to Tuned. Alex is not available this week and was trying to go back to stock.

If anybody has the step by step instructions they would greatly be appreciated. It wasn't intuitive to me when I got to the flashing portion.

Depending how long ago you got the tune, just switch to the 240e or 241e file he sent you. Takes all of 5 minutes. I believe he labels that file as "flash first" as I recall.

That may be the problem, I don't have the original computer I had when I downloaded the tune. I'll have to wait until he get's back and get a stock tune from him.

The tune has run flawlessly never needed to go back to stock, but now I need to and put on an OEM X pipe to pass emissions.

Trying to revert my car to stock tune

Any updates on this thread? I wanna revert to stock as well with the alpine tune. However it has been 4 yrs since I did the alpine tune in my car for a stage 2. Last year I went ahead and got my car supercharged and the tuners tune is weak. No pops and he toned down my exhaust as well which is very sad cos I have an IPE full exhaust.

Same, I tuned to stage 2 late 2017.
Flawless tune 6 years later.
I might have to re-tune in 2 years to pass emissions if I get stationed in a not-so-friendly state.
