ill find out when it gets here and see what it is... the cd is burnt so i have no idea what software is actualy on it.. though it does state it can do quite a few different things..

see what happens

so can you copy the rom and then make a backup, then retune the stock ecu?

yep, thru tactrix

ok i have a feeling it might actually be a standard cable but he said im still able to change a lot of things and reset ecu. ?


The Tactrix cable has a bit of extra functionality & provides a voltage on a pin back to the ECU to allow re-flashing of the ECU.
Other than that though they are very similar.

The free re-flashing software that is out there is still somewhat in its infancy and people are working on various projects...probably would be more developed if they were all working on the one thing.

damn sounds too good to be true, can you download good maps from anywhere and try them? Im going to do some research as its an interesting prospect.

Tip - if you plan to download maps onto your ecu or tweak your ecu, suggest you get your AFRs, etc checked properly.

ok, purely a hypothetical at this point but good advice.

yup, one of those will do....

Tips... know what you are doing!

Also... beware of the ecu "marry" issues coming up... bye bye ecu if you are not careful.. oh yes..

MY06's have checksums.. so if you decided to edit.. you'll miff something.

Also remember first 8kb of RAM has your VIN number...

yeah sounds bit risky if ya ask me.. id be happy just checking for errors and being able to reset them .. thats cool.. clear one error code pays for it self..
