If you have ever taken a programming class you know there is more than one way to write a program to do something. That said, ECU programming in the SRT/PT as compared to the WRX are two totally different manufacturers and two totally different ECUs even if they essentially do the same thing. Consequently you cannot say that because something works with the WRX ECU that it is going to work with the SRT/PT ECU. Each will respond differently to changes in input and output.
I don't really agree with the statement that its low tech either. In fact if anything I would say that the SRT/PT ECU is probably more advanced than any of the other stock ECU's out there. This ECU is capable of constantly varying boost to produce a flat torque curve. How many other ECU's out there have boost schedules like the SRT/PT?

LOL, werd lori!
as for the 2.4 turbo's electronics, the computer takes inputs from many different sources, not just a few like the TDs. This way, if you try to fool just one sensor, the computer has like 4 other ones telling it whats really going on, and it will override your "trick"
that was straight from the engine designer's mouth

Well when it comes to this kind of stuff, I go with whatever comes directly from Chrysler until proven by many otherwise. Lately everything concerning SRT-4/PT's and the 2.4 Turbo have been hearsay (or however you spell it). I have yet to see any conclusive evidence (not to say I am not anticipating it).
flame away
PS- still waiting for conclusive evidence

it can be done it has benn done and i wouldn't have believe it but i did it
as per the car going into a limp mode they are somewhat correct
and I say somewhat heres y if you disconnect the wastgate solenoid and leave it open it will go limp BTW the K in the video thats jeffs car runs 12s. ok back to the pt if you disconnect the wastgate solenoid and leave it open it will go limp, if you install the grainger in line with the original vacuum line to the actuator it work. the grainger is adjusted kinda wierd its almost like its gonna fall apart cuz its set so loose and our bleed is bigger than a normal one its goofy but it works
