no mate you cannot remap these ecus you can however buy a apexi which are about £600 i think. or if you look on ebay there is plenty of people who do eeprom chips which ive been told will take them up to about 310 bhp? my mate has had one for about 2 years with no bother in his 1995 turbo 2000 from polar performance
or zen performance can do a live map with one of these chips which i think would be better go to zen on google to see prices

As a factory item this ECU cannot be mapped. However there are some options that do allow it to be mapped. Inside the ECU is a spare socket which a new mappable chip can be plugged into. There are various suppliers of these chips and a good place to start looking is on the ESL website, there you will find a list of suppliers of the 'Live ESL Chip'. Each supplier could probably offer an alternative too.

Steer clear of the cheap **** from Ebay as you will probably have no idea where the map came from, best be safe eh?

The tuners on here are very well regarded and I'm sure any one of them would be happy to give you some advice.

Yes, Polar Performance is Scott T, he is also on here and could give you some good advice.

Tuners websites are above, most of them post on here. Some travel to you, some don't. I'd speak to one of them first.
