However this is an aftermarket tuner at the end of the day regardless of it being considered a piggy back or flash tuner the result is the same. The risks are also the same, you can destroy your vehicle should you choose to use this device on your vehicle and load the wrong tune etc.
I have yet to see a tuner that doesn't warn of this upfront, hell even most shops now a days make you sign such statements before taking your car in just for repairs let alone a performance shop.
If we need to sign a release I doubt anyone would complain about it, or if we need to pay more for access to those files and buy the software that allows us to make changes again many would do that.
At the end of the day it was always promised and no one else has an issue providing it that's where the hang up comes along. If something needs to be done legally to release liability then so be it. But the lack of this ability now is a let down for many.
My post has been very professional I am not blaming Unichip nor Jack just trying to find a solution. Unichip has a chance to offer everyone a product at a much lower cost that puts them in a very good position. The more it can do the more appealing it becomes.

I don't think a signed relase matters. They could be fined simply for selling it as a way to run e85 on a vehicle not designed for it. If I sell you a bomb and you use it, a signed release isn't going to keep me out of trouble for making the bomb in the first place.
Unichip is capable of doing it, and you could always go to a local unichip tuner and see if they will help you. Or get a unichip tuner license yourself they aren't cheap, but way less expensive then say an Ecutek tuning license. Of course you also need to know what you're doing which takes a lot of learning.
I got my tuning license through Unichp Wholesale for a specific project I'm working on. Even though I'm not planing on getting into tuning they provide some really great training materials which have tought me tons about tuning concepts. It's a really cool system and this basic setup on our cars is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what it can do.
