Bought my NA in May, direct import. Need to know if its been chipped etc as it goes well past the 112 restriction, and on and on ....... :D How will I tell if there is a non std or upgraded chip on the board.....

 

Cheers

if it has had a KMH to MPH conversion that will lift the restriction anyway, as far as I know, the black bock robs the signal going back to the ecu of every third signal, so the ecu thinks you are doing a third of the speed (also if its only getting 2/3 signal the KMH speedo reads in MPH) and so you would need to be doing 170+ to hit the limiter.

 

To check the ecu, get it out, open it up and see if the chip is soldered in place or is in a socket, if it is soldered it is unlikely to have been chipped.

Goto an empty motorway, and floor it ;) If it goes over 112mph its had the restriction taken off. ;)

 

 

Is your speedo in MPH, I think they conversion thing usually gets rid of it too.
