They wont. Only way to know is to read the data on the chip.

Presumably if you would have bought a gtech2 then you'd have a setup that's suitable for it? If so, then might as well just fit it.

No, I said read the DATA on the chip.

It's just a generic eprom chip which has the data burned onto it. You could ask GrahamL but I very much doubt he keeps a record of which serial number is what type of chip.

Yup, there's no way of telling just from the markings on the chip unless it has "2" hand written on it, sometimes I'll mark a Gtec2 like that if I'm sending someone more than one type of chip at once.

If your car doesn't have the mods for a Gtec2 and you got the chip from me it'll be a Gtec1.

Its a huge risk fitting a chip without knowing what it is, I would buy a new one from Graham!

If you send me the chip I can verify which version it is.

PM me.
