Wow, cool, this is all very new to me. Thanks for the info.

Yeah seems logical, I just can't go tinkering with this stuff on  my car
without having at least a pretty good idea of what i'm doing. It's my daily
driver.  I'm glad to know that I can get another PROM assembly though. I
bought an aftermarket PROM and it altered the personality of the car in a
very bad way so it's been shipped back and I'll put the money into my own
equipment.

It's an '89 Iroc-Z. :) Has anyone here figured out how to modify (DIY
style) the '94+ ECM with the flash memory instead of a PROM? Just curious....

Thanks.
