thinking of getting new ecu!
basically i have a 98 uk wagon which i think is the v4, but ive been told that the ecu's can't be re-mapped. ive also heard that you can fit earlier ecu's with just the change of a couple of wires?? is this correct if so which is the best ecu to get to be re-mapped???

92-96 = ESL option.
97/8 seems to be the ***** one that struggles
The common theme seems to be that www.jollygreenmonster.co.uk has the answers, have you had a look at the site or called for a quote and some information? Simon wont bite, he's a very nice man

Not moaning about it, especially as I have absolutely no intention to buy one. My skillfully mapped OEM ECU delivers the goods (and 420bhp) and I'm extremely happy with it. Merely pointing out that IF the price is fixed by agreement, this is illegal and the parties involved could be open to prosecution...

Alan,
Are you trying to imply something?
Limited company, vat registered and my sole income not that part time is an issue as most of the top mappers are or have been. This takes up my time 24/7 pretty much.
You keep up all the talk
Lol

I only map I dont build engines other than my own so have no need for fulltime premises as such. I could fit parts, open a service centre etc but my interest is in mapping so I leave the rest to the traders and do their mapping of which are currently 6 or of course for individuals
