- | ====== 2G Non-EPROM Conversion Process ====== | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | Not to brag or anything, but we do a lot of unique, cool stuff at ECMTuning. Stuff that NOBODY else in the world does. So, yeah, we might be bragging a bit, but there are a few things that really do deserve some special mention. The 2G non-EPROM conversion board is one of those. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | This is not a simple board with a simple adapter. It's a complex design, complex build and complex installation. And to do all that while charging around $150 is a real challenge. The only other company that used to do anything even remotely similar (TechTom/TechnoSquare) did it in a horrible way and charged $600-$700 to do it. | ||

- | ===== CPU Removed ===== | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | The first step is to carefully remove the CPU and make a few other modifications to the ECU's PCB to prepare it for our conversion. The following picture shows a board after this step is complete (click to enlarge). | ||

- | ===== Adapter Plug ===== | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | After the CPU is removed, we have to install an adapter plug in its place. The following picture shows a board after this step is complete (click to enlarge). Note the careful solder work involved on those pins. | ||
