Ok, and there is the problem I guess. I have been looking for that info but it's a proprietary data format I believe with very little info I can find. Any suggestions or sources?

I'm curious who else might have a steve wong chip and is able to connect.
I have also installed a Steve Wong chip for my LWF. I don't think I've experienced any issues connecting but will try to confirm sometime this week.

The aftermarket chips don't move memory or register locations around.

You have to disassemble the eprom from the TIP ecu.
