^^^ so ur saying the 96420007 will work w/ V5.10 and above?

 

I know this thread is a bit older but I was wondering the same

 

I also have a 96420008, and was thinking of moving to tephra's 96420011 v5.10. From what I understand it's OK to move to the 96420011 from a rom of the same 'family', like the 96420008 or 96420007. Maybe someone who is 100% sure can chime in?

Does anyone use tephra's 96420011 v5.10? On the main tephramod v5.10 thread it is still listed as untested.

 

should be fine on both counts.

the only problem with 5.10 of 96420011 is I forgot to update the MUT table for the various 2bytes+1byteload..

I will try and upload a fixed ver soon

 

I've also seen some say to switch to the 94170015 for the P0300 fix. Just to confirm here, would the switch from 96420008 to 94170015 be OK? Would the immobilizer work? If so could 96420008 users adopt the tephramod for 94170015?

edit:
I ask because there is a lot of conflicting information out there...

Let's leave the question at this: What is the best supported rom for 96420008 users can switch to?

 

You can probably run 96530006 - just do the immobiliser mod.

We are pushing most evo8's onto 96530006 (even 94170015 will probably go that way too)

just save your old-rom... if anything funny happens then flash back..

 

i had the 96420008 and switched the 011 like 2 months ago and have not had any issues at all. i drive a 2004 RS

 

Is there a way to run 96530006 and keep the immobilizer working on 96420007 and/or 94170015?

I'd like to go over to 9653006 with my own car and others but it would be great if we could keep the immobilizer working.

As a second to what has been mentioned, 94170015 WILL NOT work to replace 96420007. As just a direct change immobilizer code and reflash type of thing anyway.

 

I originally had the 96420007 and I'm now successfully running the 94170015 with the use of my immobilizer

PM mrturco, he offers services to transfer the roms and pricing was quite reasonable considering the mods done.

 

just look at the evowiki for 96530006 - to keep your immobiliser you need to copy the 0xffa bits as well

 

I too just went from 96420008 to 94170005 and kept the immobilizer. The wiki tephra mentions below was very helpful in getting everything setup for it. Then just got a stock 96420008 rom from aktivematrix, compared all the tables to mine to know what exactly i had to copy over to the tephra 5.10 and everything was fine

 

Still have 96420007. Haven't had a reason to change ID yet.

 

Anyone?

 

Yes you can. they are of the same ROM family (9642), 0008 is just version 8 and 0011 is version 11 (or something like that)

 

yeah ive been running the 11 rom for a while now with no issues...but you have an Evo9....so your rom ID should be way differnt...
