RE:E-Prom Chips A Thing of The Past ????

Subject: RE:E-Prom Chips A Thing of The Past ????

I guess I really don't see the point. You can be burning chips for your car for less than $200 in gear and software, and it's faster than any flash ECU that I've dinked with.

It takes me about 2 seconds to burn a file to a chip, and another 4-5 seconds to swap out the chip. If I spent another $60 on a Moates Ostrich, I could tune in real time with the chip style ECM, which is something that you can't do with any amount of money on a flash style ECM.

Beyond that, if you hang a tune with a chip ECM all it costs you is a $5 chip. Hang a tune with a flash ECM, and your out $100 for an LT1 unit, and who knows for the LS1 unit.

Again, I just don't see the point.
