So from my understanding it is possible to tune something like the 8ld with a a9l strategy when using a quarterhorse. Would that still apply if I burned a chip when done or would I still have to have the quarterhorse connected to work right?

From the homepage write up it looks do-able. You tune with the QH then burn that file to a chip that is left in the ecu. Frees up the QH for something else.

Does it have to be a f3 or could it be a ti chip?

I run A9L/A9L2 on a 8LD ECU but only with the QH. Haven’t burned a chip as yet. Only thing that the 8LD is limited by is fan control. Apparently the hardware does not exist in the 8LD to run fans.

You can use TI chip. I have a couple, haven't had the time to burn.

There is a thread here somewhere that discusses how to. I think memory mapping is a bit different, and burn2 does work.
