    In Europe there must be a half a dozen places that can upgrade ECM computer on the comical trucks for Volvo, is there any places in the USA that can upgrade or flash the E square prom.

    Just looking for some better milage out of my 780 06 I-shift.

    There was a time, when in EU they did EuroII to EIII conversion, but it was to decrease NOx emissions, not for better milage.

    Newer D13 engines (E5 and EPA2010) are different not with software only, but with longer stroke and hot exaust. they save fuel becouse engeneers do not think about NOx emissions and software is otimized for fuel milage, All additional NOx will be destroid in SCR catalistic converter with urea injection....

    but early D13 had toasted valves issues becouse hot exaust, later problem was solved.
