You will lose your settings. You can backup your settings to your laptop and then load them back in after the relocation

yep, the settings only get saved if you have a 1g

What happens when the battery is disconnected from the car?

For the 1G version of DSMLink, nothing. All the changes you made prior to disconnecting the battery will still be remembered.

For the current 2G offering, without the memory board, it works like this. When you order DSMLink, we'll ask which injectors you have. We then burn a chip with default settings for those injectors. So if you loose power to the ECU, DSMLink will still function properly. It won't "forget" anything necessary to run your engine. The things lost will include the adjustments you made to the stock timing and WOT fuel tables. The stock values are still there. You'll simply revert back to those values when the ECU powers back up.

You could try something like this and see if it works. It is a memory keeper with a 9v battery and should be available at Pepboys or autozone. I bought one to keep my CD player auto EQ/alignment settings but haven't had a chance to see if it works yet.
