remap your stock ecu? need to know HEX and a few other things. if you have SOHC ecu the instillation of the chip is fairly easy, same goes for ca and rb20. Sr20 and ka24de need daughterboards and are ore exspensive. ---

Well basically, connect to the ecu and run diagnostics and just veiw how the motor is running. Im going to be straight, I dont know much about the ecu and how it works and what is possible and what isnt. Ive done a search, and I dont know if im looking at ODB-II or ODB-I. Ive found packages with software and connectors and such. I just dont know what Im looking for. This is some of the stuff im looking at… [http://www.xmanproducts.com/tuneboy](http://www.xmanproducts.com/tuneboy) ---

I have what you are looking for. You mean to hook it up to the CONSULT port? I have teh cable and the software (infact I wrote my own software to interface with it). [www.plmsdevelopments.com](http://www.plmsdevelopments.com) is where I got mine. ---

Gonad, did you just buy the cable and the converter from these guys? Theyre about 115 CAD before shipping. Im guessing thats a pretty good deal, conisdering I saw stuff for more than that. I really really appreciate everyones help, thank you very much. Jon ---

The software works nicely but me being a nerd I decided to learn and write my own for it. It’s not fully finished because as I started nearing completion my KA crapped out so I stopped. It’s supposed to work with SRs too so hopefully I can get it working on the SR if I have all my wiring done up right. I’ll release my software eventually once Im done. ---
