165 ECU File

[NRG]

Well my Diacom wont hook up to his 165 ECM for some reason or any other non
730 GM ECMs for that matter. I guess I need some sort of special adapter for
my cable or something. So I can't put a scan tool on it :(

I'm sure a couple degrees wont hurt anything, since his timing looks very
conservative plus he's using 92 gas which can only help prevent any
potential detonation.
