Re: No 911 content: Can the chip from my VR6 motor be reprogrammed?

I just bought a VR6 motor from a 1999 GTi to install in my 914 and I read on this board that some people were in the business of reprogramming chips so I thought I'd ask this question here. The VR6 computer is expecting input from many non-engine related sensors so I was wondering if the chip could be reprogrammed to 'believe' that these sensor readings were all still within spec so that engine performance would not be affected and so that I don't get any error codes for sensors that are no longer connected.
That's a pretty crazy swap, as a VR6 owner, I think you'll be pleased. Show us some pics when it's done.
