Don't forget the eprom memory that tracks how many times software has been installed and Cali currently looks at. You can fudge the checksum if you can read it, load the software twice to flip the tamper bit back to original. I can buy a non neutered cpu for my VW and like oilpan4 said take 15 minutes to swap it.

Why bother? I do miss the 50+ mpg and performance the Golf has pre neuter, and the not every other day regens, but the mods violate my old age requirements of keeping it stock simple until 2013 when the fix the check engine light up to including a whole new engine and gimme a free rental warranty expires.
