Im not that familiar with the GN's but im sure whichever c3 ecm they use is
well hacked..."Burning" a chip simply means changing the settings in your
eprom...Most likely he used tuning software like winbin or tunercat  to
change settings with, and an eprom programmer to write the changed data to
the eprom..Then simply reinstall eprom back in ecm and make another run...I
never burn my original, just the used ones I got at astro's....

It was'nt that long ago I was asking same simple questions... All that
should be well described in the archives,prog.101, or is probably in a faq
at the diy site by now...

Just the systems listed above?? Or

Eprom programmer, www.xtronics.com  plenty used eproms,( same type as yours)
Astro's electronics 321- 727 -9010, a laptop,or scantool, and compatible
software www.tunercat.com depending whichever type/year ecm you have...
