Sounds like a load of bollocks.
"Uncrackable", ok sure thing. Didnt GM say that about the E39 too?
When will everyone learn that calling something "uncrackable" or "unhackable" means it will be at the top of someone's list to crack asap? It's a challenge that (so far) always results in it being cracked. ECMs, software, etc.
Thats ok there is some genius on a Corvette forum telling people this:
"I suggest you do more homework as the C7 uses the Siemans PCM from Europe, not Bosch and it has been used for 3 years over there and not one person has cracked it, nor how the PCM has to connect and exchange protocol client to server
It so bad that owners of performance cars in Europe are forced to change to different PCMs and remove engine functions that older PCMs were not designed for. "
Then telling ME I dont know what I'm talking about ROFL
In all fairness we can't dismiss the non hackable point. The current generation Bosch EDC17 and MED17 ECM's are causing some major problems with RSA checks during reflashing on some of those ECM's. There's just no getting around that unless Bosch give you the private key (zero chance of that), this is why many of the Euro tuners have to pull the ECM's apart to bypass that check which is only done during an OBD-II flash. It'll only get worse as processing power increases, the ECM will have more time to do complex checks before allowing the engine to run. For us GM gas guys at least it looks like we will still be doing this for another 4 or 5 years until the next generation of ECM's comes along.
In the meantime, whoever at GM did the deal with Delphi to supply ECM's for the SIDI motors and not use an MED17, we thank you :thumb_yello:
From what I hear our 'new' VF Commodore is just carry over E38/E67, but knowing our luck when it's re-badged in the USA as the Chevy SS it's be the SIDI V8 :doh2:
