I wouldn't look at it as different operating systems, its programed differently. Trucks use BCM to control tap shift, not sure of the year ranges, but the 6l80e corvette mentioned in the youtube and what I followed sent the different voltages to the transmission directly depending on tap up or tap down or sport mode. Its simple change in HPtuners, not re-flashing operating systems, just parameters outlined in the instructions.
