You got the right place.
The Turbo Shop software is limited.
There are others, Tunercat, and GMEPro
BEFORE you do anything, start reading the archives.
The ecm you'll probably be interested most in is the 1227730, so start
researching that in the archives.
That will get ya going,  then visit Programming 101, tuning.txt (is at the
FTP)

| Hi all I'm new to this list.
|
| I was recommended to this list by some folks at corvetteforum.com BB.
I'm
| trying to determine how to fuel inject a '73 vette and still retain some
| degree of tuneability (so I can tinker with it over time) w/o spending
| megabucks on an Accel system.  Am I in the right place?  I'm not looking
to
| design a system from scratch.  I would like to use the GM ECM as a
| controller but what I hear is that it's difficult to retune it for
specific
| applications.  Does anyone know if it's possible for the average shade
tree
| mechanic to reprogram the GM ecm (I do have an electronics degree but no
| guru though)?  Is there software available to do this with the early '90's
| MAP style TPI intakes/ecm's.  I'm told that The Turbo Shop had software to
| reprogram it to some extent but it was apparently not capable of
addressing
| all aspects of ecm retuning and that it was possibly not too user
friendly.
| When the inquiries about the software and requests for help mounted the
| company owner just discontinued selling it.  Is there an alternative?  Am
I
| wasting my time here?
|
| Thanks
| David
