The updated chips are usually brown or dark purple and also have a
window on them which is hidden by the heatsink alluminium strip.

Brown - Its chipped.

All updated chips are nearly the same no matter what spec as the boost
limit has been removed and the ignition timing is adjustable on the dizzi.
