Anyone have a used 3b chipped ecu, or 20vt eproms for a reasonable price?

[Ben Swann]

Does the VMAP actually contain two pressure transducers that are switched 
independantly, or a 2.5 with a resistor Mod to fake to 3Bar or vice versa - 
truncate the read of the 3 bar when it goes to 2.5 or 2 Bar.  Ineither case, 
I consider the VMAP to be rather pricy for what it does, but perhaps I need 
some education on how it works specifically and don't have the full story.

I can get the 3 bar Motorola P.T.s, but last I checked I had to buy in a 
quantity that required large cash outlay due to a large minimum number, when 
all I needed was one.  Maybe if there is interest, I can put something 
together GP wise. I suspect however most of our cars are not prepped to take 
3Bar.
