    Im just waiting on an adaptor for the VR memcal. If no one else gets back to you in the next few days,then send me a private message,I should have the adaptor by then,and we will go from there.

    Its to connect the memcal to the chip burner/reader so the memcal file/image can be uploaded to a computer,once its uploaded,the memcals chip is erased using ultra violet light so its blank again,and can be written to again,then the memcal image is opened in a program,here the different ECU parameters can be adjusted for better performance/fuel economy etc,then once the tune is done,its saved and then burned back to the blank chip on the memcal.Ive been doing VSV6 tunes for a while whicxh i test ion my own car and lately Ive had a few people ask about the VR's,but Ive had no VR car to test the memcals on until now,so Ive just ordered the VR memcal adaptor so I can start to do the VR's.

    You will need a Manual ecu. Not tune.

    True in a way, but not.

    A genuine t5 manual ecu and wiring loom from a vr will work better and be less painful.
    But the auto error codes can be turned off and the speed sensor and reverse switch rerouted to work with the t5
