Question LT1 edit and real time tuning...

Does LT1 Edit have the ability to modify the ECM in real time, with the engine running?

No, the new version of Tunercat will though. I think it's call "TR Tuner" or something like that.

Sorry, but this is incorrect. The RT Tuner will only work with EPROM PCMs, it will not work with FLASH PCMs in 94-95 LT1 cars (any PCM using the $EE or $EEb definition files). As of right now, there is no real-time tuner that I know of that will allow you to tune a FLASH PCM. And the RT Tuner from Tunercat is the only one I know of that works for EPROM PCMs. Tunercat doesn't say why it doesn't work with FLASH, but I assume it has something to do with the way the FLASH PCM programs over the EPROM PCM. Also, the RT Tuner does not actually program the EPROM chips, it just allows you to make adjusts and see them in real-time, get it perfect, then save the file and burn it into the EPROM. Very nice, now if we could just get it for our FLASH PCMs and save us all some time!!!

That figures. I have never noticed Romulans being very cooperative.
