There are several different ECU's/ROM files for the 370Z. So basically, we need to get some more 370Z's in our shop, and dump the ECU to our laptops. We then send this file to UpRev so their engineers can build a patch to allow reflashing to occur. Once a ROM type is in the library, than any Pro Tuner can tune that specific ECU. The 350Z for instance, has well over 20 different ECU types/ROM Files that all had to be patched back in the day.

Semtex....come on down!!! Call me!

I don't use PMs, too many forums to keep up with. rich@uprev.com e-mail me and we can set up an appointment.

OK...... So that means it is still under development. In addition, no one has addressed the cam timing aspect and by skirting the issue; the very simple obvious assumption is it also is still under development.

Someone, tell me I'm wrong.

Lastly..... why can't I do a read and send it in to Uprev if that is what they are looking for? More in their database.
