Prom bruning and software development???

What are the requirements for a prom burner to be considered good enough for burning 86-93 Eproms? Any good websites you can think of (I want to do this cheap if possible.) What size Proms do we use, and how many pins?

Also, where do I find the software for it and what's the cost?

Lastly, how difficult is this? I'm talking about a MAF car here. Could you just basicly copy the old prom, save all the fuel tables, and MAF/O2 tables, and then just modify the torque curve? Also, can you increase the amount of fuel that gets in the motor by the chip?

Thanks

Have you tried the DIY PROM board and read Traxion's PROM Burning article (with a link at the very top of the DIY PROM board)? Tim's article has ALL the answers to all of your questions (plus a lot more). Plus, read some of the older posts (set the date to all posts over the last year) as there were a lot of "how do I start" questions in the beginning...we tend not to answer those anymore ... just point people where to read...too much re-typing.

Also, read some of the newer posts, especially about "Flash Proms". This is a recent development and us SD guys are using those now instead of the regualar eproms. They cost only a few pennies more, last virtually indefinitely AND you don't need a UV Eraser for them (saves some money).
