Now that you mention it mate, I'm thinking the same..

The quickest would be to connect to conzult or datascan. Failing that if you whip the lid off the ECU and you see a chip sitting in a socket then it's a good bet that it is chipped. The factory chip was soldered directly to the pcb. HTH

Happy belated Birthday mate :pint:

:lol: You need to be subscribed before offering services mate :lol:

A big lump of wood and a hammer mate :) Either that or cut the belt. Just to add; copious amounts of wd40 around the pivot bolt should help a bit as well.

:shock: Hope your all going to be suing the arse of them. Bloody idiots :cursing:

So what caused the flooding? Was it a burst mains or something?

Hope she has a great time mate.. PS. Hope you haven't advertised the party on FB.....

Really sorry to see that mate, hope not but I think she's a goner :(

Really sorry to hear this mate :no:

What's happened mate?

Yeah, unless you have the very rare forth sensor which allows for FTL travel....... :laugh:

Andy does the chips, but the spl ecu will just be a standard ecu that has had the chipped changed. Normally the new chip will be in a socket meaning that you can just pull the chip out and replace it with another one.

Reverse, speed, and neutral mate. HTH

I would try it, an auto ecu shouldn't cost much at all. If that does fix the problem then you can still up the boost by getting an EBC installed and using the spl ecu. Mig tips are used in welding but they can also be used in the vac lines at the turbos, they work by restricting the air going through and increasing the PSI. The reason that they are used is that they are very cheap but can cause boost spikes (bad) EBC's electrically control a solenoid which in turn increases the PSI, you can set PSI levels for different occasions. HTH

Happy Birthday mate :pint: ps. Rich mate, I'm going for option two! :lol:

It's not so much the BHP that the chip is mapped to, it's more that it allows extra fuelling at different stages of acceleration which in turn lets you turn the psi up on the turbos, resulting in more boost and the extra HP. If you're running standard tubs and the boost is still at 9psi (factory setting) then it might be that the ECU is putting to much fuel in and causing your problems. A "stage one" chip for the zed will typically up the boost to 14psi. I was just wondering if the ECU from Mickey was maybe for bigger tubs and injectors, which again would result in problems. Do you have an Electronic boost controller or mig tips installed? And don't worry about the questions mate, that's what the clubs for :)

Just noticed this! Looking the nads as usual mate :bow: that vert is far to nice for the likes of you..lol

Temp sensors are on the front hard water pipes, the single spade one is for the gauge and the square two pin one is the ECU. On another note, Did Mickey say what map the ECU was running?

There's your problem! lol It's still worth checking mate. Also, if the bolt on the ECU connector is over tightened it causes the connector to bow and gives a dodgy connection. EDIT: the white fan will turn over with the engine but should only be turning at idle speed'ish (unless the engine is hot). Not anything to worry about.

I'd go with the ECU change as well mate. A duff ECU or chip will cause the electric fan to run constantly and cause all sorts of weird fuelling problems.

That will only copy it as an image though won't it?

Your welcome mate :)

trust you to lever one in there :laugh:

How the f*'# did that get in there?? Wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen the photo....
