Figure out what that raw data means.

Be able to display the data in a way that makes sense to the user.

Edit the data.

Flash the new data to the ROM.

These are, very simply, the things that need to be sorted out?
Dumping the ECU with non commercial tools is what you need to do.

You'll need to find someone that knows how to communicate with the ECUS.

After you have the raw data from the ECU, the RomRaider Community can help understand the data, locate maps etc.

They have a map editing program that can be used.
