A good friend of mine has all the harware and what not for flashing with T5Suite. I took apart my factory automatic Aero ECU (200hp), soldered in the 8 pin header. We copied the original BIN from the ECU, flashed in Stage 2 software and everything came up roses.
I installed the ECU back in the car, went for a run and the car had more power, but not significantly more. It felt like a factory Aero. Also, virtually instantly, I had a check engine light, which came up P0605; PCM error. Turns out that the pair of 128k flash memory chips, or at least one of them, crapped out and the stage 2 load was corrupted.
I just ordered a pair of flash memory chips off eee-bay for $15, and will remove the old ones; solder in the new ones and hope for the best.
As I understand it, what happened to me is about the worst thing that can happen with T5Suite, and its really not terrible, just an inconvenience.
