Hi, my S4 has a G-box.
I find a cheap C-box to tune and leave my untouched.
Can a C-box(29F400) be flashed with a M-box(29F800BB) file?

As I thought 

I bought a 800bb, but the seller decide not to send it  Angry
Not very easy to find one on the cheap, 300euros is too much.

thanks

thanks, I will PM you if can't find one in this side off the globe


Why switch to M-box?

I want to keep my stock ECU as backup in case of something go wrong, and also, I can't find an xds file for a G-box, M-box is more popular and by using that I bypass immo issue.

There's a near complete G-box OLS on this site. Much more well defined than M-box.

What IMMO issue? Clone your original.

I think phila forgets how intimidating winOLS is for a new guy, especially coupled with all the other things he has to learn. The M-box has tons of support, and the xdf's are plentiful.

Bottom line, if you're more comfortable with the M-box, get acclimated with it and then move onto other things.

I haven't explain myself very well, but thats it.
I take a look at winlos and seems chinese to me.
Turner pro seems much more easy to use and has much more information on here about it.
