Re: ecm newbie

I'd strongly suggest you consider the 1227730 ecm.
Yes, it means finding some connectors, and a few extra hours wiring tings
and getting a MAP sensor.
But, it's openly been hac'd, easy to get, editors available, and easy to
work with IMHO.
There aren't any down sides other then ecm and connectors themselves, and
hunting some is no big deal.
BTW, the 165 AKA 808 has been used MAP.
Wire as a 808, and use their .bin  ASBX, should get ya by, with nessary
changes
