you can now have the v3/4 ecu piggybacked for about 500 quid including mapping , its called an esl daughter board, not long been out, not a bad piece of kit either for the money, you can run mafless, twin maps, knock correction etc etc

Thanks for the mention stedee.

I don't want to be pendantic but it isn't a piggyback. By that definition so is Syvecs as it is an interface board added to a life racing ECU.

Apart from that spot on, twin full map, 3 stage knock control, switchable maf/mafless load, actual OEM hot/cold starting and idle, clsoed loop fuelling, full OEM diagnostics and very comprehensive forthcoming motorsport pack. £295+VAT for the hardware.
