for chips/chip adapter
27SF512 and Aries adapter will work
I think the 24 pin chip/adapter will work, also.

Flash N Burn to program/erase chips

Tunerpro to makes changes to the bin.

FLash N Burn has it's own software that comes with it.

You're also gonna need your stock four-letter BCC from your computer. Go out and look at it, then post back what you have. Should be something like ARYU or something like that. Also, You probably have the 7747 ecm, but check to be sure. silver box behind glove box.
Gonna need to study a little bit before you start making changes, the learning curve is steep but tuning is pretty fun and rewarding


I think you can pull a bin from the chip in your computer. not sure. It's been a while since I've used the Flash N Burn

sure will. cable + aldl + excel=datalogging.
tunerpro + Flash N Burn + chip and adapter= new chip
you can get basic ALDL stuff like BLM and knock counts with tunerpro RT, but WINALDL works better.

If you want to save yourself time and money, you can buy one from tbichips.com for 100 bucks, custom tuned to your vehicle. Probably what I will end up doing.

Man, that's a little harsh. Yeah, I know you know what you are talking about but not everyone on here is an expert on this stuff. Grant newbies a little more leeway vs discouraging remarks.


Fast305 is right though. The TBICHIPS chip will allow it to run but it may take ALOT of trial and error and many, many chips, and it it STILL may not be perfect. DIY tuning would be best. If you don't have the means, I'd try to find someone close to you who could put their hands on it to tune it for ya.
