Actually, I have extensive knowledge of the bosch ecu range as I helped
to write a lot of the software out there that most people use to remap them.
Done extensive work with serial flash reprogramming and on board
diagnostics on nearly all of the types.
As for EEC4, I reverse engineered it 15 years ago and I can tell you
despite its being old design, It is quite sophisticated, just a bitch to
manipulate in real time.
