BlackT5 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I am. I have the hardware to read, copy, etc. but no gui like his yet. Mine is a simple connector that just clips onto the actual rom chip. I would be marketing it, but it's just a bunch of wires and not finalized yet.So you're not actually socketing and replacing/emulating the chip, just piggybacking it? I looked into this before I bought my standalone, but had no idea what I was doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InitialDriveGTR Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Well, I think his design is using a fpga because it can change the maps even while the ecu is running, which means it's emulating the rom most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
550 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 In a sense it is an EEprom reader/writer with a USB interface and it is always connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbotuner Posted September 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 finalize it fast....seems like we are paying for the GUI....eeprom readers are no new story....but for M4.3 and M4.4 it is a new story....No you are not simply paying for a GUI, although a significant amount of development time has indeed gone into the GUI because one of main features of Turbo-Tuner USB is to make it as simple as possible to use while minimising the possibility of messing things up. You are paying for a complete tuning solution, with warranty and backup support, ie a genuine viable alternative to a standalone system. Some of the features offered in the current version can be seen here: http://www.turbo-tuner.co.uk/ttusb-features.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InitialDriveGTR Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 How did you figure out what the maps were when you actually were able to read the eprom and get a bin file on your computer? Did you ask volvo or actually figure out what the map's address's in the rom were? Did you pay some one for the info on what the maps were, because if you did, and it was something ridiculously expensive, then I could justify you selling them for that much INITIALLY.Also, how do you go about tuning the ECU when the usb connector is in the engine bay and you are in the car with the laptop?

I looked into this before I bought my standalone, but had no idea what I was doing.My system doesn't piggyback. It is in essence a in circuit programmer. The ECU is off, and my circuity programs the ROM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InitialDriveGTR Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I guess I won't be getting answer. If anyone else has any experience with editing maps please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone would like to be kept up to date with developments and new products etc, please drop us an email or fill in the form on the contact page. Thank you.Understood, seems that people are trying to downplay all the R&D time, or take info to build their own. I'll be taking one of the 4.4'sI guess I won't be getting answer. If anyone else has any experience with editing maps please let me know.You should not even be asking that question to a person who has put time and effort into making a custom mappable product for us to use, and who is selling it, why would you even begin to think of asking, thats rude in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
