Don't think so sir. We barely got a reflash and I don't think the general pop for our cars get that deep. You can ask the Hack man himself but I don't think you're gonna get anything out of him

So you can read out your rom but no more ? Can not open / write it in Ecuflash because have no XML ?

I currently run a reflash and if I'm correct ECU Flash will NOT read the reflash rom. I remember reading that on the ecuflash website. Hack locked it so that it can only be used when he releases his version tuning software.

I'll have to check with Brent and get an update. For some reason the V6 TB is not operating right on my car.

I've heard of a number of tuning companies are now reflashing using the free EcuFlash software for lancers and colts. new checksums for these vehicles have been added to
EcuFlash 1.43.3172 BETA (Windows XP/Vista/7 x86/x64)

Would be nice to see this come to fruition. A proven remap\flash that is consistent. Obviously not easily done, kudos to those that are working dilligently on it.

lol, unfortunately the info is out there, but most people easily using it don't come on here. and sorry, I'm not that interested in tuning lancers, I don't keep up with it enough... Lancer RA its like flogging a sick horse just put an evo7 ecu in and be done with it lol. at least the tephra, gunzo and mrfred community is open and free. this lancer community is very closed circuit and no sharing going on, trying to squeeze every last penny out of this tiny niche.

someone should talk the Evo guys into writing some ROM xmls for you.. start sending them some roms.. or find a RalliArt owner who can dissassemble roms. Unfortunately I'm sure the smart evo guys all have enough money to by EvoXs, and are busy with their own EvoX ecu mod projects now

Dissassembling roms can be learnt, like everything else.. want to get started? find a mentor, and read some stuff at my site:

I don't see it being as easy as swaping an evo 7 ecu and driving to the dyno then tuning it. :/ can you explain realisitic procedures? I mean you say do this and that but the say it's a waste of time working with the ralliart ?? Contribute or don't....

The disassembly as already been done by Hackish. This ecu from what I know is nothing like the EVO. Thats the reason its taking so long......

I believe some of the issue revolves that time spent is better spent on the EVO where the gains are way more substantial compared to the N\A RalliArt.

Not many companies are actually working to crack the ECU or to provide a decent reflash. Hackish is surely doing his part, but there does seem to be a gap there as far as other individuals or companies.

At least that is my observation.

From what I have observed this car was very difficult to work with and I believe there is a decent market here. Hopefully when Hack's software is ready it will revitalize this market.

I know with the turbo reflash I had the car drove like the turbo came from the factory. Many people I have talked to are either selling thier cars or have stopped modifying them because of the ecu on this car. Piggybacks dont work (for long) on a NA set up and I know from personal use the definitely dont work with a forced induction set up.
