It's simply a different ROM ship in the ECU containing a new map for the ECU to control the engine with. (Basically a remap on a chip - none of the fooling around confusing sensors etc.)

Last I heard they were somewhere around £60.

Benefit is simply more power (safely) extracted from the engine.

I dare say David will post his answer in due course, assuming he leaves his workshop tonight

BTW - David - have you looked at the program I sent you?

Sorry - what am I saying I should have known better - I suppose I'm jealous, as I've got a local pub, but no car sized workshop of my own...
