Memcal socket install

[JimmyH]

Simple question:

What reprogrammable chip do I buy for my series one VN? I want to try a few different configurations on it. I've got TunerPro, and I'm thinking I'm going to buy sockets/cables to do it real-time.

AT29C256 if youre lucky enough to find one, but i think the 27SF512 is a reusable chip too?

So what's the deal with a 512k chip where the actual binary I'm using is only 32k?

 

[stocky]

you stack it using tunerpro

Does anyone have an xdf file for a series one VN they can upload? I might mess around with my own tunings for a while.

Ok the whole point of putting a socket in there is so you can either, install a Atmel 29c256 flashable eprom in place of the UV light original and then you can use an adpater to plug your memcal straight into your eprom burner and reflash your program in a couple seconds, or you can just lift the eprom out and plug in a different one, the socket just makes life easier

Later on I'll make a little guide on how to make a VN performance chip in tunerpro 4, just with screenshots and stuff like that

Another thing, since if you really want to go fast the last thing you need is a knock sensor, you can just leave the knock board off and we will disable the error code in the memcal later on

Hi greenfoam did you ever make a guide about making a performance chip as stated above? If so can you point me in the right direction as I'm new to tuning with the computer as opposed to carbs & dizzy.
