Yeah your deal was a little better than mine... you profited from it /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
As for the python you have, did you have it rebuilt? if so how long did it go before it blew. Also, what is the part # that is on the sticker of your case.

Now that I think of it, this "Python" ECU is still in my Galant. That black case is actually a 1g DSM ECU case. I took the burnt Galant ECU out and swapped the guts out with this Python since the DSM case is different than the Galant. It is still running in my car 2 years later, so it can't be that bad.

Quoting JNR:


That would be "What is a python?" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif Notice the capitalization, referencing the brand name and/or company of this modified/refurbished ECU. yeah, I'm being a smart ass /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Seriously, what makes this special and better than finding a pot of gold? $75 is a good price for an ECU, that's for sure, but in reading it, sounded like a $1k piece, or something...ha ha, I know the feeling though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif



I know, I figured it would be a DSMLINK fitted ecu or something.

Nice find! Back when I lived in New England I used to go to this junkyard way off the beaten path and pick up 1g eeprom ecus for $20. Good times /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
