Question

"IF" I were to sell my Prodrive ECU (MY00) what sort of figure do they do for? What sort of figures does a Link ECU with/without tuning module and Knocklink/sensor and LambdaLink go for in comparison? Are they about the same given that a car with PPP does have good resale value? Seems a shame to hang onto an ECU though just for selling the car at a later date?

This is not a for sale or wanted notice, just testing the water shall we say

Don't bombard me with emails begging my Prodrive ECU off me just yet

So you think I should leave it how it is and learn to drive it properly?

I would only go link if I wanted a bigger turbo, but for primarily a road car I am not so sure. It certainly wouldn't have the reliability issues. I have also been thinking about a nice big garage and a track car... plastic pig type...

IMHO around 4-500 for a secondhand Link ECU is about right, I paid ~600 for mine that came with the lambda- and knocklink modules a year ago.

There aren't that many available...that tends to up the prices a tad.

I think you should do a few track days before you decide.I did not beleive you at first about the P1 ,thought he must have left the hand brake on,now I do.

You mean you believe my car may be as quick as a P1 (unfettled)? I reckon so but with very different power delivery?

I do not think a standard P1 will pass you,once you have done a few sessions at K/hill,put it that way .

I'll give you £ 15 for it.

You DID want me to say that eh ? LOL

But more seriously ... yeah, the "nut behind the wheel upgrade" is something I really take seriously now (after my hardware upgrade craze )
