This may not be the right board but I may have a better chance that someone knows what I am talking about.

I saw this in the Motorbooks Power Tech Series, How to Tune and Modify Your Camaro. It's on pg. 93. It's call a PROMPAQ II made by Adaptive Technologies.

It allows you to have 4 different PROMs in one ECM and a key switch to change between them. This is NOT like the JET 6 Pack chip. This allow you to have 4 of your own chip. They come with a valet chip and then you add your stock chip (if you want) and up to two more modified chips. This would be great to allow you to pass smog with the stock chip, have your own burned chips and the valet chip would keep others from hot rodding your car when you drop it off somewhere.

Anyone know about this? L8R

Yeah, I remember that a few years ago...

Some guy used it in his big block truck that ran 12s or something.

The only thing I've heard with trying to do something like that with our cars at the track is the ECM has to learn the calibration of the prom each time you change it (by driving the car).

So, you couldn't just change between performance chips at the track to see any real gain unless the ECM has first learned it. At the track you wouldn't be able to this. Am I right? Maybe someone can confirm this?

The valet feature is cool though...

Haven't heard from them since so I assume they're out of business.
