hmmm, how to be sure it will not kill my engine?

you'll never be sure for such cheap chip...

B.T.W. as I remember 3b has only 200kpa map, so you it's better not to boost 1,5 bar

Problem is that I know of at least 5 people who have blown engines with these chips. Spun rod bearings, thrown rods through the block, burnt pistons, etc etc etc...

mihnea, do you have the hp and torque curves of healthy chip (your chip)?

it depends on many factors and car mods those HP and torque curves, for example you have free flow exaust and it will be different curve from car that has stock exaust. It is better custom chip or programed ECU (this one not for every day driven car) then some "unknown chips" witch are without any warranty

oh bu66er bo110cks sh1t3 **** guess what ive got a digitec chip in mine curtousy of mr. tim cooper, which cost me 2 5speed gear boxes (i did a swap) altho i am happy with my performance, have i been robbed? and i cant afford to kill my engine so what can i do?

[sla_s2]

[WabTheKing]

no never had it on the rollers think mine boost to 16psi only just got rid of all my boost leaks

Mihnea:

"Sla, the digitech chip is an ebay chip, thanks but no thanks, I've seen it loads of time already. You have no knock sensors in there, so watch out for pinging on bad gas quality."

"Sla, the only reason why your mixture isn't leaner is because the ECU is detecting pinging from too high timing advance, retarding all the way and dumping more fuel inside the combustion chambers to keep the engine from knocking."

Does the chip have knock control or not?

Cheers,
