Curious about EFI Live/ECM options At some point in the future I plan to build an L92 for my car, but for the meantime I have an 04 GTO motor and T-56. In order for me to even start the engine in my 240sx, I have to have the ECM reflashed to remove all the security garbage. A buddy of mine paid $100 for a EFI Live flash and the car runs great, but he didn't get the actual software to modify his own ECM. Basically I wanna buy the whole shebang so I can make changes in the ECM myself so that way I can get the GTO motor running and later down the road I'll be able to make the changes for the L92 without paying somebody. I'd like to be able to make changes to my buddy's GTO ECM as well, if that's possible.
I'm also wondering about the 2 different reluctor wheels between the 2 engines. Will I be able to change the program to read the L92 reluctor wheel with the GTO ECM, or will I have to get the stroker kit with the GTO reluctor wheel?

EFILive:
- you will be able to turn off vehicle anti-theft;
- you will not be able to change reluctor(s);
To run GenIV engine (58x/4x) on a GenIII PCM (24x/1x) you would have to use the LPE converter module, or physically replace the crank/cam reluctors.

I may need some help, academically speaking, in making the thought/process conversion over. That said, can I cut and paste injector-related HP Tuner tables straight over into EFI Live?

There are very few tables you can cut and paste from HPT to EFI because most of the tables axis are flip flopped from each other. Also not all the tables use the same format as the other software. It can be done its just not a simple copy and paste process though.

I'll try and get off work early tomorrow and call. Need to pick your brain on using EFI Live to tune for dry nitrous setup. Assume you have the Flashscan V2's in stock?

LSX Power Tuning, thanks for chatting with me just now and setting me straight on what EFI Live can and can't do. Weather is horrible here in the panhandle so doesnt' surprise me the call got dropped. Your turbo shop car with the Holley Dominator EFI setup sounds like an awesome setup btw. Any links of it's build in this or YB forum?
