PCM switch out?

I don't know if this should have gone in the EMS forum or not so move it if does. Can I find a wrecked rx-8 and use that PCM to send into Racing Beat or will the security immobilization system be all messed up and not work with my vehicle?

the pcm needs to be keyed to your vehicle already.

Yes...but for all intents and purposes...no...the ones who could do it will not so your best bet is to get a rental and send in your own or wait for the accessport...
