does this cure the random idling, (ie 1500 rpm on a cold start) associated with stage 3 cars? or is this just my car and likely to have another cause?
Hi, At £120 its unlikely you have a Pectel conversion so you should be ok.
Yes, you can send me the ecu and i will make the modifications to teh daughterboard and fit the chip FOC and post it back to you before 1pm next day, all you should have to do then is plug it in and go, although i do advise you have the system given teh once over by a pro with a fuel monitor who can set your boost and check teh fuelling is ok.
All Cosworths should idle, AND drive, teh same cold as they are hot.
Its worth noting a raised idle of between 1200 and 1400 rpm is normal on a cold YB until it gets some heat into it to allow a steady idle.
