As far as I am aware it is only a chip in the spare socket in the ecu (93~96 car?) and cannot be mapped.

You can have an ESL daughter board installed that is live mappable if you need/want it tuning

The chip is inside the ECU
see Fitting Instructions

it will be mapped quite aggressive for UK fuel and to around 1.1bar, so I advise the use of high RON and octane boost.

some of the Prova ECU have the chip soldered direct to the board, so if you want to replace it with another chip or a live map ESL adaptor then it will probably be better to get a 2nd hand unit, as the chip will be a bitch to get out.

It's not a Prova ECU but a standard ECU with a Prova label on it and chip inside.
Your standard injectors and Map sensor will be running at their max at 1.2bar. So there isn't anything you can do to the ECU that won't involve changing other hardware on the car.
