I'm removing the cat from the Chimaera, which required a EPROM change in the
ECU. TVR (in their infinite wisdom) have different cat/none cat chips,
which is daft as you are supposed to just change the tune resistor to select
the correct map.

Anyway, it got me thinking, what can I do with an ECU? So I don't waste to
much time in the research department, does anyone know of, or can point me
in the direction of the following:

Map layout for the 14CUX EPROM
PC connection to the 14CUX
Data format that is returned from the 14CUX
Any existing software for the 14CUX

The TVR EPROM is a 256K (although only 128 is used) so my first job is to
put both cat/none cat data on to one 512K (they are cheaper than the 265 or
128 anyway) and switch the MSB along with the tune resistor, because I'll
still need the cat chip when I refit it for the MOT.

All I need now is a nice day so I can change the manifolds and get rid of
the pre-cats for good.

Replace all TVR-spooky-magic by 1 word: Emerald.

Give Dave Walker a call.

Didn't really want to go to such an expense. If I up-graded the pump and
injectors it would possibly be worth getting a better ECU, but I'm not going
to do that (for now anyway).

There's a chap called Mark something down Southampton way who's a genius
with Rover ECUs.
