The 079 chip is from the old D box once hks changed to the e box the numbers were changed. You need the correct number from the chip to get the info from HKS Japan the first chip was the D-079 all infomation was moved over to a different chip number but i never got that number as getting a new chip retuned was what i needed.
One thing is the fcon front silver, or black and its its black whats the box if its the D then you cant get a chip from hks you can only get the chip for the e box from them.
The last chip i had made was for my 390's with a tkt t3 and a full 3in exhaust, cone filter, upgraded intercooler pips and had 2 stock intercoolers welded together, but that was in the mid/late 90's, if you can still find the mixture controller get it, well worth the money. It works the same as the newer ones.
Is the CT26 60-1 garrett hybrid, alot like the hks 60-1 for the supra if so thats a nice size turbo.
No im not Tino or this Zombie fellow your talking about.
Just any fyi the fcon was made for the Honda as well but its super rare and only sold over seas. Most people with the sr20 go with the pfc f-con over the greddy e-blue for one big reason, Greddy cant make something simple to use.
If you can find a Rod Millen f-con chip this would be the way to go for your setup, he used 430's just like in his gtr and had an upgraded turbo. This i know HKS never got rid of that info. You can still get the Rod Millen chip for the 323 gt, so i dont see why you couldnt get his probe gt chip.

I think i'm getting an E Box, unfortunately. So this makes it easier to get chips from HKS, if i'm reading your post right?
Heh, sounds like your last chip would have been perfect for the turbo setup i just sold.
Yeah, my 60-1 is pretty much like that. It's fairly decent sized, good for 450-500 on a 7mgte, so i imagine i'd have no problems hitting my goal of 300-325whp on it.
Ah ok, i was just mainly curious. It always astounds me who pops up on these forums with exactly the knowledge i'm looking for, with knowledge that i may not be able to find on the marque-specific forums.

So i would just need to contact HKS Japan and ask them about a Rod Millen chip for a Probe GT, E-Box?
Yes the e box is what hks still sells. Your going to have to have the number for the chip or find someone with accrss to hks's chip database, or you could try to get ahold of rod over on his site millenworks.com. The worst he could say is he no longer has any information. The millen 323gtr chip number is MAM06.
Got the Fcon in today... no identifying numbers on the chip. 
I'll ask the seller what the chip numbers were on the chip he apparently copied.
Thats an e box. Looking in my old notes from the supra, the d-079 chip sould have been renamed the e-079, just as the d-105v was renamed the e-105v.
Make sure you wire in that fcd in right the first time if not it will fry.
No its in the box you see that small blue wheel with numbers that how you adjust your tuning, if you can find the mixture controller it will let you tune it on the fly.
Yeah, i haven't looked into wiring just yet. I'm probably not going to install any of this until i have the entire setup that i'm wanting.
What's the alphabet soup code for the mixture controller?
Ah, i see the blue wheel now. What does the white plastic switch/trim thing with the phillips head top do exactly? I monkeyed with that a little to see if it actually moved, like it looked like it should.
4299-RA001, No idea on the plastic screw its dosnt feel like it want to move in my box.
Hrmm... more research is necessary. I've got some inconsistencies between you and the guy i bought this from. (Probably leaning towards what you're saying at the moment.)
He linked me to an ebay auction saying that i needed the HKS Pressure Sensor, saying it was a 2.5bar map. Strangely, it looked just like HKS part# 4299-RA001. (This setup didn't have a "pressure sensor")
This is what he linked me saying that i needed:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HKS-VPC-PFC-F-CON-AIR-TEMPERATURE-SENSOR-4603-RA001-L-/120699583878?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c1a417d86
Weird.
Anyways, you were right... E-box, and he thinks the chip is a copy of an E589.
I will research and see what the plastic screw and jumpers do. 
The d box doesn't have the plastic screw. Thats not a map sensor thats an air temp sensor, only still sold for the vpc since its also used with the new f-cons. Since you want part numbers here are the 2 sensors used D box : 949940-0730, E box : 949940-6110 the 4299-RA001 is for the mixture control.
It could be hks changed the number to e598 but i dont see that chip in my 1999 hks book but then again i dont see the zp-8, or zp-11 harness, and they start the chips at e101 so it must have been changed. If you dont mind me asking why didn't he put the number on the chip? Its not hard.
Pressure sensor is no big deal Rod's team fix this issue years ago by using a generic multi-atm denso map.
Info showing the different between the hks map and the gm 3bar map
http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=106549
Just to let you know hks used the 949940-6110 Denso map in a few of their products.
E Fcon
Early AIC
VPC
ECG
Early electric boost gauge
Im sure im missing one or 2 more items that used the same map sensor.
Ok, so for my box i need 949940-6110 or equivalent for pressure sensor that i'm missing currently, and 4299-RA001 if i want to change 0-9 settings on the fly?
I don't know why he didn't put the number on the chip, or if he was the one that made the copy.... I'll get ahold of the guy he sold his other setup to, i think that was a true HKS chip.
I know there's not much difference between the HKS map sensor and the gm 3bar, since the HKS was actually a 2.8bar anyways. I'll have to make sure i get all my wiring down before i mess with it, though.
I'm having a bit of a hard time finding the map sensor with that part number, i can find info, but none for sale just yet. I'll find it, though. I can find anything. 
Thanks!
Any tips on finding the mixture controller? Ebay and google shopping aren't giving me any love.
Well that part number was discontented 10 years ago or so, 949940-6270 was used in the power fc and is the same map just looks a litle different. You best bet at this time is to pickup a cheap gm 3.0 map.
As for where to pick up a mixture controller, check out some of the supra forums. I know people have them kicking around some where not knowing how to hook them up.
Weird! Looks almost like an EBC solenoid!

Looks like i've got some buying again, then i'll bug you again methinks.
What are the essential add-ons to this system besides the GCC? I also notice that there's two versions of the GCC, does it matter which i get? One has 5 adjustment knobs, the other has 6. I think the 5 is older.
What exactly does the VPC do?
Thats the newer style the older style was when the power fc came out and then they changed it along with the power fc to that one, yes it was used in the apex-i avcr boost controller. Why they both use the same part number, i have no idea. I'll try and pull up some part numbers to see what the older one was.
You dont need anything else, but depending on what your doing with your system some of the thing are nice to have such as the imp, it lets you see what the stock singal was and what your singnal is now it also let you know how far till you have maxed out the injectors. I remember there was a way to wire the ebc to the fcon so it used that as the pressure sensor, but its been so many years since i have seen it like that.
The older has 6 adjustments and th enewer only has 5 but i believe the adjustments are farther between with the newer style, both work great. The older ones says pfc fcon gcc while the newer one came out when the vpc did.
The VPC is used to convert a mas system over to speed density system. Instead of having the mas, you will have a map sensor and an ait sensor. It also has compensation for larger injectors with the correct chip you can use both the fcon and vpc together but they both need their own chip and you need one that ends in a v for the f-con.
Ah ok, so i doubt i can use the VPC on my car. I'd be highly surprised if there was a chip for that for this application.
I'm told that i'm not supposed to touch the phillips head white switch thing. Oops. 
Heh, this same discussion has spawned a fight on MX6.com. 
Think i've got a line in on a GCC II, pressure sensor, and PNP harness for the GCC for cheap. 
Anyways, Ziggy... my chip is E579, apparently was the replacement for the D079 with the "D" boxes. Don't know if the "D0 = E5" thing could be considered a truth or anything.
Well when the e box came out they started with e101 and any d chip under 100 got renamed. Seeing as e579 is not in my book it very well could be the chip.
wow, seems like a lot of work. Especially since you can get a megasquirt used for $350 or so.

And then have no idea how to adapt it or tune it because it's all way over my head. Then pay for dyno-tuning.... and blow my Challenge budget away with a vengeance.
I'm not going to be paying $350 for the initial setup of the things i NEED. (Fcon PFC w/ chip, FCD, pressure sensor, GCC) Budget hit will be minimal to none once the current setup is removed. "Normal" chipped ECUs go for about $100, my hacked VAF went for $50, minus current injectors. My ECU is not a "normal" chip and will command a large premium.
But don't you need to dyno tune the fcon as well?

Nope. I can log AFRs with my Innovate setup. Street tune.
Yes, i can do the same with the Megasquirt. If i knew how to tune it.
Even if i went to the dyno, it's way cheaper to just pay for some dyno time ($50 for 3 runs) than it is to pay for dyno time AND pay a tuner by the hour.
I'll only be tuning fuel with the Fcon, piggybacked off stock ECU. Won't have to mess with creating my own maps for both fuel and timing with my radically different setup than stock on the Megasquirt.
Would the Megasquirt yield more performance in the end? Absolutely, for lots of reasons. I'm not ruling Megasquirt out entirely... just not doing it this year. 
I hear you now. I stumbled upon a mx6 gt earlier today, guy wants $800, tempting, but wife would kill me.
