If you're talking about eprom emulators, "back in the day" I used to
use a device called a "PROMICE".
It was wonderful. I did a few different boot proms with one. Very handy.
It was made by (I think) Grammer Engine. Try www.promice.com. But
gosh, they do seem more expensive now that I remember...
I looked on ebay and didn't find one, sadly; I did find, however an
"ostrich 2.0" USB eprom emulator which looks nice. www.moates.net
Apparently there is a large community of people out there hacking engine
ECU's. who knew? :-)
