So, if understand it correctly, if you buy a used Stage 1 PCM you can enter your VIN and immobiliser key data by implementing procedure for programming new ignition keys from the service manual? Intersting...
BTW from reading the service manual I remember that for US vehicles you can program ignition keys yourself without DRBIIIt. I wonder if that could do the trick. I can't check it, since my car is an export model.
Yup, don't know if the rekey method will replace the VIN with your VIN, but I guess it would have to since I doubt the car would run with another VIN in the PCM. I guess I will try to have a "spare key" made today to see if the copy will allow the car to run, rather than the car shutting off after a few seconds.
