It is listed as a 'Scooby ECU' chip, which where indeed, as he states 'the original'. The PP chip was as i understand it, a progression from the Scooby ECU chip.

He does have a couple of negative feedbacks re the chip too.

I suppose though, if you did fit it and got the car straight onto some 'knowledgeable' rollers (as you should with any mod) to check out all the variables, you will know instantly. Then, you can either keep or return the item and inform everyone of your findings.
