Default Is a 96 classic ecu re-mappable?

Hi, does any one know if the 96 classic ecu is re mappable? I keep finding people putting 'sister' chips on the ecu

But if I had the option would prefer a full re map one I have saved enough to get some engine mods done at the same time.

if it's not which I presume is the case which ecu's do people recomend for the classic? Preferably one which can be remapped again the future.

Thanks for your help

your cheapest option is the esl daughter board or if you want a few more features and benefits look at the simtek ecu and if you have deep pockets look at the syvecs

the esl live map board will give very good results and a smooth running engine.
and theres a maf less model for higher power motors.

the esl board is alot cheaper to
and as alot of peeps have found, just as good as the after market ecu's

dont forget to add the price of a remap on top of that, then its not far off the price of a new simtek with better features and way off of the price of the ESL.

ive used the esl boards, there very smooth running as all the safe features are still there.
i was runing 341.4bhp and 338ftlb torque.

with the standard td05 16g, other mods like. for for the price of the esl boards there a great bit of kit
