When I asked why our cars don't have those power programmers they sell online and on TV, the response from the ORG OGs was that our ECU wasn't flashable. You couldn't just plug the programmer into the the OBD port and go to town. From what I read JWT and TS put a daughterboard onto the stock ECU bord, they don't flash them. Got that from the ORG maybe a year ago and it wasn't some noob saying that. That is also why they couldn't do the 97-99 ECU mod, the company who made the ECU board in those years was "unavailable" and they were unable to "crack" the ECU.

94-99 don't have that type of ECU. There is actually a daughter board wired into our ECU that overrides the stock program. 2K+ maxima ECU have the flash type.

technosquare reflashes certain parts of the ecm's memory (air/fuel map, ignition advance, red-line, VTC activation and top speed cut-out). IIRC they do it through the obdII port. they don't use a daughterboard setup.

you're right. I guess we should all clarify which year maxima we're talking about.
