Byteshooter OBD Flash ECU Programming Tool
Modern engines are operated by a computer, better known as ECU (Engine Control Unit). This electronic calculating
unit sets the pre-ignition and the quantity of petrol which will be injected, depending on a number of parameters
like the surrounding temperature, the density of the sucked up air, the number of revolutions of the engine etc.
All this data is saved in one or more memories, called EPROM’s or chip’s. Chip tuning means that the chip with the
original data is replaced by another one with optimized data, in order to increase the capacity and the torque and
to obtain a more agreeable and smoother motoring performance - in case of turbo engines the performance increases
between 20 and 40% and goes hand in hand with a reduction in fuel consumption.
The Master:
Every master has an unequivocal signature. (e.g., eurotuning)
The data which are read out from the ECU are saved in the binary format.
The file is able to come immediately, e.g., WIN-OLS are edited.
With the tuned file a checksums comparison must be carried out finally.
With all EDC16 the checksums comparison is done in the ByteShooter program.
Then the binary, tuned file can be written with the ByteShooter in the ECU.
