Replace Eprom with Flash type memory
Is it possible to use flash type memory instead of those old fashioned eproms which needs UV-light to be erased? It's too time consuming to erase data with UV light when my programming device can erase data from flash memory in seconds. If i can use flash type memory, which is the corrct one to use insteadt of 27C series eprom our cars use ?

I am sure it is. I had a new socket soldered into a GM ECU a few years back. Then used flash chips. Worked very well. I have not seen anybody do it in porsche world, but cannot imagine any particular issue.
May be helpfull to look at http://www.moates.net/index.php
They sell sockets, flash chips, burners, etc
