    Yes, you could be right. My guess Mitsubishi would use the same style ECU for the 3000GT as they would for the 3000GT Spyder.

    Jim said ECU... meaning Engine Control Unit.... I'm pretty sure they both have engines

    and yes, spyders use the same ecu as the coupes.

    I would sooo pay to have the ability to flash my ecu. It would be wonderful to not have to use the t-pro for all correction and get the ecu back into line.

    I'm sure a similar method was used. Basically identify the MCU chip and then get a development board to pop the chip in and dump the code.

    PM me if you really want to help Although I'm unsure if Spyder owners could benefit at all if we could change the top operations.

    Hans, I'm surprised at you. We have an EFI ECU, ABS ECU, SRS ECU and probably others I forgot to mention. How many engines do you think one car has

    Correct
