all the aftermarket companies do is take a clean ECU and put new software on it. Speedparts needs your VIN and current ECU part number, they send you a new ECU, and then you send them your old one. I guess something needs to marry up with the rest of the car, that's why they need the numbers off your old one. Some other companies have you send yours in, which means your car sits for a while without an ECU. The biggest problem is getting the software and the interface, which is why people pay the aftermarket companies. I don't think this is something one could try at home.
