Hi, I have the car in the topic subject.
I would like to know the following:

1. what hardware tool should I purchase so I can play with my engine ECU ( read/write parameters files ) ? is just a hoby related thing, so I don't look forward to spend a lot of money on the tool since it brings no profit.
Let's say is only in educational purpose, and if i find that I like this, I will try to invest more money in genuine tools later.
Does any tool like FGTech v54 /galletto, mpps work?

2. what software do I have to use for this purpose (to read, edit parameters).

3. the above tools, i assume are working for DPF/EGR removal in the eventuality I want to do that at a certain point, since the recirculated gases are producing a lot of soot on the walls of intake manifold, throttle body, swirl flaps, EGR, and makes the car respond slow at low revs.

Thank you in advance,
Victor
