Hey guys, newbie question:

I understand the PCM, it's maps of fuel-air ratio and ignition, etc., and the OBD-II system. I've used code readers, and I know many will read the parameters from the sensors in real-time (rpm, air flow, coolant temp., exhaust o2, etc.) but are there any units that will do all this and reflash the pcm, too? Also, which cars can do PCM reflashes, and which ones do you have to replace a chip? Thanks!

That can be done on most anything from 1996-current OBD2 so your covered. Your going to need a flash tuner like an SCT X3 or livewire to be able to reflash the PCM and also use it to datalog all parameters as well.

If you want you can email me directly and I can get into more details on this for ya.
