Re: EPROMs & mods, etc.

I appreciate your offer to have your EPROM dumped Glen ... er ... Bob.
I don't remember anyone saying anything about the IA stage II EPROM.
I do recall someone saying that one of IA's early efforts had an EPROM
that matched the stock part ...

I would imagine that you are aware that this would involve unsoldering 
the EPROM from your ECU, with the possibility of damaging either it or 
the pc board.  I understand that it is a 2532 part, which I believe was
produced by TI originally.  

I share Nick's (Bob's? :) opinion, I have not seen any conclusive evidence 
that Ned does anything more than provide better support to those who pur-
chase his product.  As I have stated before on this list I am perfectly 
willing to pay for the effort of others, and as an engineer I would be 
the last to try to steal Ned's work (although I have heard from others on 
the list that Ned has admitted to using things that he has "learned" from 
other manufacturer's chips).  I am skeptical because of the lack of info-
rmation about what to expect to be changed with the IA mods (timing changes,
whatever).
