Ztech can supply...

 

Its around £75-£100 is memory serves me correctly

Power increase comes from the Boost raise

Very reliable, the safest available

Chip needs to be desoldered from ECU, a socket soldered in, and new Chip fitted.

No need for Rolling road, its an off the shelf chip.

 

It is the safest chip, but will not offer the highest power gains.

say i bought a JWT chip then bought a boost controller and/or bigger injectors at a later date would i need to buy a new chip? or would it see me through future mods.

Depends on the mods. Boost controller is fine, but injectors would need a reprogram.

cheers mate thanks for your help :duffer:

Yup...ZTECH can supply and fit JWT at a very reasonable price.

When I used to have mine it was sound...looked on the conzult readings and was mapped nice and safe...:hyper:

Of course if you want more GoGo you then start upping the limits :eek:

I'd like to offer a different opinion on the safety of JWT chip.

 

If you look into their mappings you'll find that they've done away with the "safety maps" which means that if detonation occurs the ECU can't engage the safety maps to try and minimise damage.

 

Other than that the chip is fairly standard and ok for moderate mods.

 

An alternative I would like to offer is our DTA Performance Chip. It is more aggressive than a JWT chip yet maintains safety maps for when things go wrong. We've had tremendous results with these chips (on both TT's and NA's) and even have it fitted to a record setting 1/4 mile Zed up in Scotland. It's a good, solid and reliable chip and we have maps available for all sorts of mods (ie, 370cc, 555cc, 850cc, single induction, dual induction, etc, etc.) It's priced at £65 plus a fiver postage and you will need to get you ECU "socketed" by a professional outfit (unless you are confident you can do it yourself).
