Sold / Found 1/1 Laptop+car link+programmable chips

[lykan]

I'm kind of guaging interest in this setup. I was going to burn custom chips for my chevy silverado, and do a few for my friends.

I no longer have good enough use of my hands to work on 1/1 cars, and the nitro bug has bitten hard.

I am open for trades, or a decent cash offer to purchase a new kit, or MT.

I included a screenshot of the software. You can get anything trouble codes, fuel mixture, shift points,spark advance etc. It's a killer setup if your a mechanic. You can plop the laptop in, record your run, and view the entire trip sitting at a desk.

The software will actually record all sensor settings while you drive so you can play back the file later,
and diagnose any problems, or sensor failures during the trip. You use these files to see how your car is running,
so you can burn a custom chip to improve performance, or just fix a problem.

Here's what's included

• 
  Laptop & accessories
  odb II cable links to any car with odb II plug
  (2) 512K flash programmable chips
  Adapter for the above chips so you can plug into your car's PCM
  datamaster software to datalog and diagnose
  USB network adapter (cat 5)
  DC to AC Power inverter 2 outlets (plugs into cigarette lighter)

The laptop is a 233/64meg ram/cd/floppy/net card/modem/good battery.
It's plenty fast enough for auto-link. It plays mp3's well, and browses the net well too.

The odbII cable plugs into the serial port on the laptop, and then connects to your odbII outlet on the car.

The chips, and adapter are for a chevy silverado and any other odbII car that uses the same PCM.
With the adapter you can burn a new chip, pull the old one, and pop the new one right in.

The only thing missing from this setup to burn your own chips, is the programmer itself, $150

Here's the pics, excuse the dust, it's been in the closet for since summer.

Not a bad deal for somoene who wants to get into burning.

I personally use all craigs stuff and a akm cable.

Thanks FSTBDY,

That's exactly where I was going with it researched it for about a year before I bought the stuff to do it.

I bought a romulator, but it was the first gen and wouldn't worrk with the 512k chips

I sold that, and well without a shop or a garage and winter rapidly approaching I just gave up and lost interest.

I was soo close to burning my own chip, but because of my hands I have to get out of playing with 1/1 cars anyways, might as well pass it on to somone who's going to use it.

I'm really enjoying the nitro hobby
