chipping and what does the chip control??

[Dan]

i just dont want to keep buyin chips for nothing if you get me

Regardless of whether you're running the stock ECU or any aftermarket system, you're still going to need a remap after every major engine change, at least to get full benefit.

I don't see the saving.

yeh but with emerald i can map it myself on my laptop, i know how it works from watchin my mate on his 205 t16 so remaps are easy and the expense has been delt with

ill give them a call tommorow and pick another one brain lol

its jst if i keep on tuning il may want another chip down teh line so your lookin at a £1000 worth of chips lol were as this engine management would be £813 all in for life no matter what mods got put on the car and i could also set a ecconomy setting and a max setting then have a middle setting to play with myself :-)


too many options and loads of travel required to get it sorted lol thats the worst bit,

i feel more under pressure cos id love it mapped intime for easter weekend (24th/25th april)at york drag strip to see how its running and time ticking away is making ti a tall order

It doesn't quite work like that, the ecu still needs to be mapped if you change the settings, the biggest thing is changing the ignition timing which until you've learnt about tuning is best left to the professionals

Mapping is not easy, ask Audiman he's a mechanic and 4 degrees too much timing destroyed an engine on 034 ecu, you have to learn A LOT and take it slow making gradual changes.

I had my VEMS mapped purely so I could get it on the road safely on quite and expensive engine and then it easily tweaked from that point

You have a hybrid, you have no reference points so it's a brand new map setup.

For 330 bhp get it mapped and then worry about future upgrades at that point later on.

cheers Jamo youve been a star, ill give MRC a call tomorrow and see were i go from their, but if they fit me in ill prob get it straight down cos i need a map now and i dont want to drag it running like ***** i dont want to kill the things its mint after al the hours gone into making it all fresh and new again

[R31LLY]

Take the 2bar spring out if you're not mapped for it.

what damage is it likely to do? as i was thinkin about testin it tonight, ive been toying with the thought of testin it before a map but still never actually opened the wg up yet

Facepalm !

[R31LLY]

Appetite for destruction haven't you ,

Okay, so maybe you won't start a fire. But you might make bananas and generally f**k your engine. Which isn't cool. Swallow that spring, or make some kind of micro-sculpture with it to sit on your mantlepiece, leave the Motronic ECU in your car and go have MRC map it professionally. Also, don't take street heroin, don't talk to strangers and always be sure to tie your shoelaces.

lol its not off in dont worry, not when i remap is round the corner :-)
