very quick "chipped" ECU question
hi everyone
been offered the ECU from a '93 WRX wagon that has apparently been chipped by Triton Motorsport for £65... yep not much to go on is it?! is it worth it for the sake of 60quid and a RR session to check how she's running, or just forget about it? I am dubiouse of this kind of plug and play chip...
my car is a standard '97 WRX wagon, and i know they make a bit more power then the older ones, maybe i would break even power/torque wise at best
regards, Ash

If its the Triton Subaru "Specialist" near Bournemouth I'd steer WELL clear!!
They "Mapped" my old scooby and failed to notice it had 2 blown pistons!! I had nothing but problems with their work. Nice people.... But the words "****" & "Elbow" do spring to mind!
