Yes, you need model one of the romulator. No, there is no logging feature. And yes, you can make changes on the fly with it. What you want to do, is make all the changes while running a wideband. Once you get everything where it needs to be, save the .bin file and burn it to an eprom. Then you should be good to go.

No... its simply fuel and timing. Only other things you can do is remove the speed limiter, raise the rev limiter, and adjust for different MAFs.

Is there a place/mirror that we can download this from? I cant seem to get a good copy of this program. Also, to anyone who has used this, do the 29c256 chips work for the SR ecu??

well, i downloaded it. And I keep getting the run time errors that I have always gotten with this program. In the readme file it says

**** IMPORTANT ****

Until I fix some more things you MUST installthis software into the default directory...

c:\live edit

if you do not do this - the software will NOTwork correctly....

Im assuming that this is done when you install it. So when I go to the program and click on certain things it closes the program. Any input??
