Found this from PRJ and MRC, so it seem to be wrong for my stock RS2 setup

Ultimot does not make their own chips.
They steal chips from others and then sell them.
Their RS2 chipset is stolen from Tom Schmalz.
Some time ago, Sir Buff on here confronted them with that, after he sent me the files and I told him it's the T+S chipset. He also asked Tom himself, and Tom confirmed that the chipset was stolen, that Ultimot is not paying him anything.
That specific chipset was also not good for standard octane fuel, it was meant for race grade fuel or with meth injection in mind.
I would not recommend buying any software from Ultimot, because they have no idea what they are selling, and they will lie to you about it as well...
That said, your "italian" option might be completely useless as well.
But before we jump to conclusions. Have you made a pressure test with a compressor and verified that your intake holds the pressure? Is your wastegate spring stock? And screw in stock position?
And finally - please don't take this entire post as a sales pitch, but if you need software for the ECU, I can help you, and I am sure whatever I will provide will be better and safer for your car than what you get from Ultimot. The price will probably be a little better as well

Jaap the first advise I would give you is to forget about Tom Schmalz and his "off the shelf" or "mailorder" software, this is not a serious way of tuning cars. No one can "get" you software for that setup, real software can only be made in the car, not mail-ordered from TS ********, and copied from MTM and other people who work hard.
Then an RS2 chipset sure won't work optimally with a K26/27 or K27 and so on. A #8 hot side (abgas) on a K27 doesn't exist, only 7 (like the sport quattro), 11 and 13, and all of these don't work on an RS2 exhaust manifold. If you want good horsepower, take a look at this graph and get yourself an RS2 turbo as soon as possible
about 20.000km. without problems.
have you tried your chip allready?
Not yet, it's when i past my Motronic that i read hte name of the chips. And because of i did'nt know this tuner i decided to do this post...and i am a little surprised by what i read(and quoted up in this post).
