need help making .ecu files, what software is best??

hi,
all ill try and keep this short. i wish to get into RT tuning and am not a fly by nighter but am from austrlia, which limits me in ways of tuning sftware. at this stage tuner cat is the only manufacurer of software which supports a ECM manufacured in Australia, he offers a definition file for the '88 holden commondore.
Anyways i wish to create definition files for a good quality tuner software with RT capability, BUT i need the software to be able to create such files.
Im aware that tuner cat, GMPCM, and i think the comonly mentioned tunerpro have this facility. But my question is, has anyone used any of these programes to create definition files, and then run them.
for instance there is no point using a excelent Def file creator to create ECM definition files that will only run in their tuner which is of poor quality.
The three programes mentioned above are all quite good in quality im told (i havnt tested them all) for tuning but no1 has realt mentioned about thier ability to creat Def files.

If any1 has had any experiance with these programes and creating def files even if you are the programer of that particular software can u please reply.
Thanks in advance, and i apologise for my simple and probly incorect use of terms, remeber im not a professional, and fairly new to this.
tahnks

I can't see why you want to make your own "definition files". You need to know a whole lot more than you seem to before you jump in that deep.

I've sent you an $5d '808 ECU file that has more in it than you're likely to use for ages. BTW, the AMXY bin has had the injector constant resized to suit a 1.8L N13 Pulsar with standard injectors.

Just download Tunerpro and check it out. Mangus has an RT version now, I think. If I were you, I'd learn to walk with PROM burning before I leapt into RT. You really need a burner after you finish your RT work anyway.

My $0.02 worth.

John
