the comp can be flashed with pats off but that involves a tuner doing so with your computer code. so that involves marrying a handheld to your comp or having it just flashed through a tuner themselves.

also to do a computer by itself the tuner would need a way to hook it up to power inorder to flash it so having it in the car may be easier but would involve a handheld

so i need to buy a hand held tuner?couldn't it be plugged into another 05 car and then remove the pats then unbolt the pcm and put it back into my car?

to make life easier yes. It think you can plug it into another car then have it flashed. It needs a power source pretty much to get it done. Don't believe the 05s have a special checking program or anything

if you have a coded key that turns the ignition over they should be able to program that key for you to that computer for $100 or so.
