808 Ecm

[limited cv8r]

Can an 808 ecm in an early holden vn/vp be modified to output 8192-baud instead of 160-baud or do you need to upgrade to a vr/vs manual ecm? Are any of the US ecm's compatible?

A 165 has 8192 I think from mem.

That would be the USA version of a 808.

Worth having a look...

Correct.

what about a "ECM COMPUTER # 1227727", is this compatible

If I was heading in that direction I go for the VR man ECM 16183082 / 16206305.

They are supported and it's just a upgrade really.

Most of the wires should even be the same colour.

Craig does a nice little GP3 Switcher that will allow you to have some fun.

You could even put a Ostrich in it and pick up a little real time.....

doesn't seem to be a lot of manual VR ECM's around,lots of autos. Do you know where I can locate one in AUS. There's a 165 on EBAY http://cgi.ebay.com.au/CHEV-ECM-COMP...QQcmdZViewItem
starting at $120 but 4days to go.

It's NOT compatible

Another note, if you run the vn/p memcal in the vr/vs manual PCM, I'm pretty sure (from memory I tried it) that you wont get the higher communication rate for logging. Its determined in the code of the memcal.

I've got a moates autoprom and chips etc so I should be able to run any BIN file, I assume. It's just trying to find an ECM that's a pain.

as long as the bin file suits a model that supports 8192. I have run a VR manual bin (cleared security) in a vn before to get the higher rate, unfortunately, if you are running an auto trans, you loose TCC lockup and ingear idle up etc..

cheers,
