I have it from a good source that this person has done the same thing as AAAcomp, I will keep this one as a spare, that way if anyone needs it I will have it available.

Same as JWT with redline, speed limiter (lack thereof) and so on??

Hmmm, something tells me that there will be SOMETHING different about the JWT..

Does JWT just swap out the EEPROM?

JWT installs a eprom socket whereas the oem was soldered in.In Reality all one can change is WOT ignition advance [increase] and injector open time [reduction], tip in ignition retard amount and the rate it adds back in, speed limit, rev limit [hard and soft] .

No difference Wes, this is the same ecu I currently have in my car from AAAComp and it works perfect, no speed limiter and rev limiter moved to 7300-7400 or whatever it is, Gleen is still offering the ecus by the way, I will have him do my TCU next

So is the EEPROM* on that green daughter card?

Or is it surface mounted on the mainboard?

*EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable read-only memory)

Theirs (according to them) is a proprietary daughter board (card) that replaces the OE & accepts the eproms. I've had several apart & it has their name on it.
