I believe I just started a thread on this subject about three weeks ago too, and all I ever get is NO, or Good F***in Luck.

Significant Technical Input
I actually have the technology to pull and write software from the obdII ecu. There's no money in releasing end user tuning software for the obdII svx so if I did so it would be construed as a sign that we are coming after the obdII imprezas and we have decided to go after all the obdI subarus instead. I want to be clear that we are not coming after the obdII impreza market and not send any false signals that we are. We intend to fill the unserviced obdI subaru niche exclusively.

Allthough I don't want to package it up to send to end users I could use it here to do obdII svx ecu's and have you send them into me to be flashed. I may well do that this summer when I get a break from collecting software off of obdI ecus or if I find myself travelig the country in search of obdI subarus if you meet me where I'm at I can flash your ecu there.

If they are stored in the same addresses in memory then the chips I'm making now will work if plugged into a OBDII ECU (96 &97) but you will loose the OBDII functionality (on board diagnostic 2). If they are stored at different addresses in memory then I'll have to transfer the same changes to the different addresses for the OBDII cars.

Either way, after we make some of our money back I'll pull the processor from an OBDII computer to extract the code and do what's necessary to make an OBDII version chip.

The bad news is it isn't something I can do in a week like if the ecu was socketed. Just hold tight for now. I'm going to keep quiet on this one till I'm closer to done. That includes the timeline for now.
Needless to say you ended up shipping the ecu back to me. I went out on a limb to buy a spare ecu to make this happen and it never did, never will. I would have kept my 96SVX if I thought for one second you would. Oh well at least I got the ball rolling on the Pheno's and a company (Outlaw) actually followed through with making it. Also if i'm not mistaken you use the pheno's in your kit but nowhere did I ever see you name on the sign up list glad I could help.

Would you like a tissue for your issue? There is nothing worse then a grown man looking for attention.

Geezus man, no need to be hostile. That's just not the direction my business is going.

The ECU came back strike two.

Do you see what i'm trying to get across? I see no intent. If people would search OBDII ECUTune these new threads would not get started. It's the same old news.

I don't need you to quote me what I've said and I'm sorry you are upset that I'm not releasing end user software. I don't lie. I don't misslead. I don't say half truths. I don't need you to use quotes to try to build a case that I am doing anything like that. If you are reading that out of the situation then you are simply missreading the situation due to your anger. I used to have the intention of releasing end user software for major market obdII cars and was going to release it for the svx as well. My business is going a different direction now and I'm not going to do that.

That said I do have the technology necessary to read and write the obdII ecu. I'm still planning on getting one myself. To make it clear I am not promissing I will take the time to do anyone's obdII svx but I might.

What have I missread? everything I quoted are your words peroid. Maybe you worded your words wrong. thats why I quoted your post and there seems to be some contradictions of what was typed by YOU and what was actually done. We use words to convey are thoughts and ideas. Yet you say i'm "angry and upset" where did I type that???? Please show me. If you can't then your assumptions of my feeling are just that. I get the feeling there is a language barrier here.
