I have a 92 chevy truck with the 16146299 ecm... is this a decent computer or should or can i upgrade?? I'm getting all my p's and q's together before i buy my burning software. I'm sure this ecm is not the most popular but if i can tune good on this to learn off of i think it will be okay. Can anyone correct my check list:

Laptop, aldl cable, scanning software such as winaldl "but cant find my ecm in that program", some type of editing software like tunercat, then a solder in burnable chip and burner????

I've looked around at a million sites and they offer sooo many different progrmas and burners, i really dont know what will be the best way to go.. I hear going real time is the best way to go but not sure if this is good for begginers?? I wish someone could just tell me exactly what to get and be done with it

 

Have you looked at TunerPro RT? How about visiting http://diy-efi.org/gmecm/ecm_info ?
