Gt40 ECM hope

For all the gt40 guys out there - it seems a workaround has been found for the lack of replacement ecm's. props to vanhanbr on PN for finding the fix!PN gt40 ecm fix thread

Read that tonight also, very interesting. I do not know much about computer stuff but this does not sound hard to do with the right tools. Vanhanbr has done the hard work.

That was my thought also. A little tweaking might result in some more HP/torque or both.

Sounds like a done deal.

Just ran the boat on the water with the c1a1 computer and the moates chip with the e290 file. Boat ran excellent. thank you all for your contribution. If it was not for this tread and everyone who shared their expertise we would not have a solution for ecm replacement. Hope this helps many GT40 owners for years to come.

Looks to me like a few people put a lot of time,effort and ingenuity into this and came up with something that works as good as the original

Just fired mine up in the driveway with my ebay c1a1 computer and the moates chip programed with the e290 file. Runs the same and will try a water test later. Thanks to all the guy's on Planet Nautique who figured this all out.

I guess I could have worded that better Don. No I did not just wanted a spare. Wanted the latest tune,the 300, but some issues were still being had with it. Maybe later I could just have another chip burned when it all works out.

Gary, what possible tune improvements could there be for my GT40? It already runs like a champion.

Yeah some folks report a rolling idle. I've never experienced it but if someone comes up with a replacement that won't break the bank, I'll sock it in my spare parts closet
