Exclamation MINES Z4 ECU !

Well i went to remove my ecu which i new was a z4 as they are standard on my car but soon realized it was a mines jap ecu with the mines plaque and no ect. I opened it up to find it already had a chip in the slot and must have been factory fitted as it was rubber covered and the ecu was still factory sealed with the mines tags.
Just wondered what the deal was with this ecu as obviously they are better than a normal z4 ecu?

MINES is a well known tuning company in Japan their maps are well known for being very aggressive and not really suitable even for our 99 RON fuel.
It will run more boost etc.

Well, if AFRs are spot on, and have no chance to tun lean when on load, then enjoy! Result.
