Its the GS8.20 and later ECUs that can be done, not entirely sure when they were introduced, but does appear to be around mini facelift.  I haven't tried a 1997 car yet (VIN ends in Vxxxxxx), but 98 (VIN = Wxxxxxx) does and 96 (VIN=Txxxxxx) doesn't...
Here's where I get confused again, my VIN is Wxxxxxxx  ?

No, your VIN starts W0L - its the last 7 or 8 digits I'm talking about...
