Get a gtec 1 chip from GrahamL on the forum if you want a chip and don't waist your money on the other chip .

yeah thought so, cheers guys. is it best putting it on the rolling road first and getting it all synced first or just put the chip straight in?

I think it's always wise to make sure your car is running as it should before you start down the tuning path.

It's also interesting to see the before and after results.

You could do a chip change in a few minutes if you remove the nuts holding the ECU in place prior to going, so could do it at the same rolling road booking.
