Its a chiped z4 ecu and would need ran with octan boost id imagine as they are an aggressive map. I could be wrong but you could prob remove the chip to return your ecu to standard?
Make sure you don't have a decat to the vehicle when you put the standard ecu back in as it will need remapped to account for quicker turbo spool so im told

People usually see problems when they add alot of other extra's beside's the ECU which is not accounted for in the map on it so they are detting the sh*t out of there engines.
When added with appropriate turbo and injectors and nothing else it SHOULD be fine to run.

As i said carry out a search you will find its not an advisable ecu.

All the searches I have found show people saying they make your car blow up but lots of people saying runs fine and rolling road printouts etc to back it up.a lot depends on how you treat your car and what mods you have.

Fact of the matter is I'll lay money down that all the cars that have shat themselves with this type of ecu fitted will have had extra mods to just the ecu fitted.

Just because someone's car give up the ghost with that type of ecu fitted means nothing,Angers car blew up last week with a symtec fitted so does that mean its not advisable as well then?,give me break.

Ok fella you know best but I carried out a little search for you..
But you know best...
Mines is a Japanese tuning firm. Their ECUs tend to be mapped pretty wildly and on Jap specification (i.e. high octane) fuel.
You may well find the engine isn't particularly keen on the combination of that management and British petrol (even VPower/99) so well worth your while hitting Search with "Mines" as the keyword, and see what the experience of others has to say.
