If its an eprom itll have a E on the sticker on the right bottom. But even .thhen it is best to open thhe case and look at it. If u still hhave ?s take a pic of it when u have it open and post it here

If it is an eprom than you will need to have it socketed.

i have read and read on that. what is it?

You socket the ecm so you can install dsmlink's chip. And regardless of whether its a e-prom or not they can convert it just fyi.
