APR ECU Swap, Transferable?

Hey Guys,
I am trading my 2009, 6MT with APR Stage 1 Flash. I am wondering if there is a way to swap, transfer the flash. Hate to trade it in with the 4 programs
(Stock, 91, 93 and 100 Octane) and I also want to get some money for it as well. Thanks,

I traded in 3 chipped APR GTIs. IF you ask APR, there is no way to do it. The flash is attached to the VIN.

We will only allow you to transfer the programs to another car if you are the owner of the other car and it's the same engine & engine management, etc.

The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

Thanks for the inputs guys! I though it would be a waste to trade it in plus the new onwer might use the wrong gas and fcku up the car (maybe i will switch to stock prior to turn it in or somehow let them know that the car has flashed)

You can't -- the ECUs are different from the '10 on...
