Nothing that's used on a Thirdgen, or been discussed in this forum, that's for sure

I have a VS V8 manual Commodore SS with the last of the '165-like ECM's. Some of the editor software that blokes on this forum use (eg Tunerpro or Winbin) will support it with the right ECU file.

You have a PCM that also controls the auto transmission as well as the engine. I don't know of any .ECU files that you could use with the usual editors on your PCM. It will be interesting to see if you get any other response.

If you can get a Caldata sheet, it's possible to make an .ECU file from it. There are alternatives, but they're over my head at present.

Kalmaker has a system that uses their modified '808 code IIRC. Other than that, you're stuck.

That looks like its for PICs. You need something that will cope with a 27c010 according to this site

Check if the Pocket Programmer from Intronics (many blokes on this site use them) will do a 1 Meg EPROM.

None of this is any good to you if you don't have the softwared to change the bin.
