Hi guys,

I am about to purchase a tactrix cable to do a reflash of my ecu back to stock, as i suspect the previous owner of my car did some tweaking before demodding his car and selling it to me so it seems like the tuning is abit off. I have reverted my car back to stock already, and am currently sourcing for a stock ecu map but am not sure which is the one i should be looking at! how to tell if my car is JDM or EDM or any others? can it be seen from the VIN?

Read the tuned ROM out, and see what ROM Code it has. Then look on this forum or scoobypedia for a stock version of that ROM.
All the best.

thank you radsdau, many things to learn for this car... sadly tuners here are a closed bunch, but cant blame them as it's their livelihood..

Yes, most of them. But they all started about where you are now. :) Just pick up hints along the way, and try not to blow stuff up....
