Jay Storm Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Depending on the version of G1, it can be a good deal. Being a direct plug-in, you'd want to make sure it's at least a V4 or higher, so you have PCLink tuning ability. The version number it is will also shed light on what features it has. They are pretty simple to setup, as I am no computer whiz and had mine up and running in fairly short order. There is online support through enthusiasts who still use the older systems as well as generous technicians who answer questions that seem to come up. My advice is to determine what version it is, then download the manual for it. If it looks like it has the features you'd want....buy it. Good luck, Jay Storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron Moore Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Hi Matthew, The manual for that ECU is available here: http://www.linkecu.com/support/dlandswupdates/Downloads/MY96Manual . Your best option would be to save the map that's in there, and do a reload to get back to factory settings and start from there. Then you can always go back and look at the original map, keeping in mind that it was for a different car, with different mods. -Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
