Not sure what to do.

If i remove it i got no chance of getting my money back. I am trying to get him to remove it and give me a refund.

I knew it was not a Unichip, as I have got the Unichip leaflet's I just wanted confirmation that it was a FCD. if i can prove it by finding out who suplies these then i can get help from trading standards.

But this is the chip i want lol

Many Thanks

Sorry forgot all about this.

I got a Full Refund, The garage showed me their invoice from their supplier and the fcd he fitted was called a Unichip from his supplier hence the confusion.

I went out and bought a Apexi ECU. Supoerb result. It also turned out the car would not run the 17 Psi as the injectors were at 100% duty at 15Psi.

hence the cutting out using the unichip.
