DIY_EFI Digest V4 #440

I am particularly interested in disassembling Bosch or Digifant ECU's. If
you have an EPROM reader I would appreciate copies of the Bosch EPROMS to
examine.

Does anyone know of a web site where I can download Bosch Eproms for
European Eproms e.g Motronic or Digifant ECU's. If not could anybody please
send me eprom dumps and I will create a site.

I am interested in writing tuning software for eventual free distribution
and user support but I need the eprom images, ECU circuit diagrams etc to
get the info first.

Does anyone have info about converting Bosch encoded chip types to the real
device numbers ?

All help, files appreciated.

Alan
