Just to put this in perspective, this is the first step to being able to tune and update our own ECU ROMs for VERY little money.
I think this will be a good first step to "open source tuning" for the 2008+ (CAN Bus) ECUs.
What do you think? |
I did see that post before and its interesting for sure. I was thinking about making an add-on board to a RaspberryPI for this, which would be a cool project (I've mad a few add-on "hats" as they call it, it's not too hard). What has kept me from doing that is because I have access to some of the best CAN tools in the industry through my job, so that keeps my motivation for this low.
I post on ROMraider under the name LeftoverPi
