FOAM_RACING_VNS1_bolt_ons_256k was a very early incarnation probably not the best tune to use it works but the man himself said it was made back in the day when we were all learning.it should run though maybe your memcal socketing job is not done properly makes the fans come on and the check engine light ide suggest re heating every pin again then test each one with a multimeter set on ohms
I tune the oldschool way fear on the passengers face and knuckle colour cant go wrong

ok i will give that a go and i reinstall the origanal chip back in and that works good but when i install the burnt one no good m ok i will do the test just in cace and and is there a better tune that you now of for a s1vn v6 ? and or wots the best program to make or chang the chip eg protuner ? and sorry for the bad spelling
my vn only has a 2.5 inch exhaust and hiflow cat and a good intake and im hopping to make it go better power

ok sorry if this seems silly but do you mean this one {Arbp 5D.bin} and can i just burn it to the chip or do i need to stack it ? and i cant remember wot page i got that file from but i got that one an 3 athers and i will wate till i now if i have to stack it and that i have got the right one and i see you like all the old medcells ? i got 2 vn ones and 1 vs one i dont need and i can send them to you for free if you like for helping me has long has i get this one working but if i can i can still send you 1 vn and 1 vs medcell for free . up to you man i just think its better to send to some one that can yous it and not the bin
if you are using a 27c256 youll need to stack the ARBP so there is 2 tunes on one chip .click on bin stacker/splitter in tunerpro select stack chip size 32 bin size 16 block size 16 load the ARBP twice down the bottom select a new name in the other box where its gonna save and click stack then burn it to the chip.everyone loves free memcals ill take them if you are going to throw them out

and i will ee how i go
ok i did the burn and tested it in the spear vn and it worked ya and has it got a rev lmit ? cos it went past 7 on the tack o
and has it got a speed limiter ? and thank you for your help i will send you my old memcals when i now were to send them

this is the first time iv noticed this thread, why have i not seen this before!!!
i own a VS V6 and and am putting a turbo on, and perhaps want to have a play with the settings myself. can a VS chip be modified on tunerpro? iv seen the kalmaker software going for $1200!!!! dont quite have that sort of cash just lying around... so would really like to buy the programmer i found on ebay, (including freight under $40!) get some chips and start learning....
is it do able?
Yes you can open the VS memcal tunes with tunerpro, and then modify the bin file settings to whatever you want or need using tunerpro. You will need a eprom chip burner, I use a GQ-4X chip burner, (just search it on USA ebay to find it), I paid around $100 US for mine. You will also need a UV eprom eraser to erase the eprom chip on the memcal so you can write your "modified bin file" or "tune" back to the chip again. The erasers are around $20 on ebay. If you want to,you can unsolder and remove the old eprom chip from the memcal and then resolder one of the newer type eeprom chips back to it, this will make the chip easy to erase as you dont need to use the UV eraser to erase these chips, you just click delete and the chip burner program will electronically erase it, a lot better idea than the UV light ,and very handy if you do a lot of testing with different settings etc. Tunerpro is free to download and use, you will need the right xdf file to open the VS bin file with in tunerpro, and theres a few different xdf's for VS that you can download and use. Also see a website called delcohacking, this site is excellent, and is pretty much how I got started with tuning and modifying memcal bin files etc to change things that cant usually be changed like the ignition timing .
