Thread: Has anybody ever used this ??

    Has anybody ever used this ??

    IMG_0437.jpgI ran across this in some of my tuning things, I think I bought it just before my ostrich and never used it. Its a rom emulator by intronics rev 2A 32 pin on the board and 28 on the ribbon side. I talked to george a few weeks ago at intronics kinda a weird guy and he was of no help and vaguely remembered it. Any information wold be appreciated .Attachment 2216

    That unit was made before the current romulators. It doesn't work on GM vehicles and several guys on gmecm including myself bought one before the web page actually stated it wasn't capable of operating the vehicle. I still have mine although I never came up with a use for it.

    It's probably been 10+ years since I bought mine. I don't know how much it cost but I do remember being upset that they wouldn't take it back when I was buying the romulator. But at the time there was no other game in town. Maybe it will work in another make of ecm. Try Ebay.

    i assume the issue is one of PROM pinouts?

    I don't believe it was pinouts. IIRC there were discussions about data access speed. Grumpy might have had luck on one ecm with some modifications but I believe those modifications may have led to the Romulator being produced.

    ugh, slow PROM... i can't remember off-hand, but i think 90nS or better is required for the P4 units?

    i imagine it could be calculated out knowing the 2.1MHz clock speed.

    It wasn't sold for ecm's. It was sold as an emulator. Later on it was sold as an emulator that wouldn't work with GM ecm's.
