Im new at this. Im an avation electronics tech. So chips UV an EE prom are not unfimaliar. I have a 92 coupe, so far stock but Im getting ready to put on shorties, high flow cats, catback flowmaster, & 160 temp. I have access to uv prom burner, so what else do I need to get started? Ive looked at the PocketProgrammer, looks good, but what adapters and cables do I need? Also can I switch from UV to Ee prom?

Check out moates.net, he has all kinds of neat tricks for tuning

For budget sake, I use his TPI EEPROM adapter and the BURN1 USB chip reader/burner.

You can use EE proms 27SF512, or AT29C256 instead of the UV chip your using now.

Alvin he can also use a 27SF256 chip, no need to stack bins And they are the same price as well. I use these almost exclusively because I can get them for less than half of what the AT29C256 Atmels cost.

How much are they exactly? I use the SF512's because they work for 16k 32k and 64k cars. Its nice to have one part that is a fit all in my inventory.
