russ78 Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 definitely has a daughter board, and yes some p&p ecu's have UV light sensitive chips gotta be worth a punt at that price though....... Quote

Ollieh17 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 The guy said it was fully functioning when removed from the car, if it doesn't work when i receive it he's happy to give me a full refund Quote

TrisK Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 I bidded up to 150 and I dont think there will be an issue withit. bet its fine. the light sensitivity things bullshitIts not bullshit as such. but the fact it could be triggered by sunlight is bull Quote
Mikeyallgood85 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 I didn't think are ecu could be chipped hence the emanage! Else why would you get a piggyback if you could fit a programmable chip? Or am I wrong! Quote
Ollieh17 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Its and plug and play just unnamed, probably very similar to jam,mines, sard etc Quote
Phil Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 I didn't think are ecu could be chipped hence the emanage! Else why would you get a piggyback if you could fit a programmable chip? Or am I wrong!They can be chipped/daughter boarded fine, it's just there isn't a big enough demand to crack recrack the stock ecu now the big companies no longer do it.Sard blitz jam mines all did it at one point. But your right it's not so easy/impossible to get a plug and play ecu mapped for your car/modsPhil Quote
richardc9052 Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 Just a thought.. seeing as these are eprom chips, can they not be read on a pc and played with? Quote
gryzor Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 The map is written to a eprom which is erased with strong UV light, it's not bs. Quote
TrisK Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 The map is written to a eprom which is erased with strong UV light, it's not bs.yeah but really really strong concentrated UV light Quote
richardc9052 Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 Yeah if it's opened indoors under a 50w lightbulb it's fine Quote
