    ECU Swap

    Alright so here is the lowdown I am doing a MT as soon as I get my BHM harness in. IN order to prepare I would like all of my pretuning issues figures out. First of all I would like to know how to disable the immobilizer as I am not so sure how to do it as it is a bit foggy for me. Also my plan as it may not sound the best to you guys I am going to flash a tephra mod to the ecu and just tune it for the N/A so I can use the mods such as the force pass and a few others. Will I be able to just flash it straight to my ecu? I would rather have this rom all setup and ready to go.

    My ecu is a 2001 Eclipse 2.4 mt of course. The number on the ecu is MR514267 then underneath that there is E1T5784 H1 ZC 0814 incase that helps

    The tephramod I would like to use is the 94170715.

    So a quick cliff notes or recap I would like to know if that ROM will flash to the ECU and how to delete the immobilizer and certain codes so the ecu wont scan for them such as EGR and the Wastegate ones

    I wish I could help but I say go to evolutionm and read their section about ecuflash I heard it is very helpful. I will be doing all that one day when I get to it.

    So my ecu reads thanks to isaurio for making an XML for me. But I'm having a rough time figuring out how to find those values and change them.

    Bro. Careful of what you put on the xml and value you change on ECUFLASH

    That is the wrong memory location for your rom

    Remember 99-00 ROM are H8 CPU- "YOUR ROM"
    01-03 are SH CPU

    H8 ROM periphery bits memory location starts at 0x272, 0x282 and so on
    SH ROM periphery bits memory location starts at 0xFAA, 0xFBA and so on

    I will send you new xml with the periphery for H8 ROM

    Your codes from your tranny swap has nothing to do with the harness swap that was discussed in this thread. It's an ecu harness swap to swap from auto to manual ecu.
