Another New Guy Here!

Hi All

I have been lurking here for a few days trying to decide if this "Black Magic" called prom burning is for me.

Looks like I might give it a try.

Yes, I have read and reread Traxion's Prom Burning Intro. Very helpful. I need to read it again.

I'm looking at the Pocket Programmer and Needhams EMP-10 programmer. Has anyone had experience with both? Is the EMP-10 worth the few dollars more?

I downloaded Tunercats trial version and have been playing with it.

I still haven't decided on some type of data logger. Free is nice but for me I'm not sure if something like the Ease program might be better. Any suggestions?

I guess a little info about my car. I have an '84 Crossfire Corvette with a 7747 ecm. The heads and intake have been ported, throttle bodies bored to 2 inches, Headers with true dual exhaust, Crane 2040 compucam. Eventually I like to trade up to a '91 L98 or a '92 or '93 LT1 Vette.

With the above in mind, I am trying to purchase prom burning equipment that can still be used with the newer ecms.

Any ideas or comments for this New Guy?

I've worked for years with the Needhams, and forra year or so now with Pocket Programmer, I'll take the Pocket Progammer.
The most versatile of the scanners is the Diacom+.

A cross fire with 747 is where I started 5+ years ago.
