lt1 ecm for TPI

can you use a lt1 ecm 95+ to run tpi? I would love to run lt1edit instead of tunercat burning chips and swapping. Just curious. Any thoughts would be great.

Use a Romulator.
No chips with using that, from Xtronics.

I don't think it would work IMO. The OptiSpark is completely different........?

The Romulator replaces the chip.
Then thru just software you can reprogam the ecm with out swapping out chips. Just need a laptop with a Serial Port and the min specs they give on their page for it.
