Just took my ecu out to send off for a new chip and found this:

 

 

 

It is labeled as 8492.

 

Anyone have any idea what settings it would have etc? Or any other info on it?

Not sure what setup it has but i have the exact same mines ECU.

 

Looks like the ECU number i.e. the number ECU changed by mines, i have 10223 on mine.

I think Mines spec every ecu to whats on the car - you change the car mods and are meant to return ecu for reflash.

They are pretty aggresive chips.

i had one of these on mine as well, did exactly the same was going to have it chipped and when i looked found it had already been done... Im sure mine had 8492 on it as well, i've got some picture at home (in glasgow atm) whcih i'll dig out and see if it was the same.

From what i found out, the mines chips generally run very rich so allow you to run higher boost, and increase the rev limit to 7550rpm and set a speed limit of 255mph or somthing LOL (so basically delimit the car)

Personally I would have he rechipped for a John Dixon or AndyP chip.

The car has a standard exhaust and no boost controller. The only mod was a cone air filter. Cant understand why it would have one unless things had been taken off before it was imported.

More than likely removed before exported (or removed by dealer once imported).

 

I've found a lot of JDM's to have Mines ECU's fitted despite running standard boost.
