# Creating an engineswap profile

Creating an enginedata profile is a great way of adding more customization for your vehicles.\
\
In order to create a engine profile, you'll need to call an export to collect the necessary data to fill the engineswap.lua profile, and you can do so by creating a lua resource and paste the following code:<br>

```lua
local chaser = exports['legacydmc_chaser']

RegisterCommand("getengswapdata", function()
    if chaser:chaser_getloadstatus() then
        chaser:chaser_getengineswapdata()
    end
end, false)

```

Then, inside a car type the `"getengswapdata"` command and you'll see that in the F8 console, it will give you the necessary information to fill in the enginedata.lua profile
