to have a wire fgoing to another board instead of a chip on orginal board
is there any adavantages on this

 

various ways m8 but that is 1 of the ways you have may be a msd chip stu's/kennys are like that

 

No but many dis-advantages to it

 

elaborate then m8 with the disadvantages then!

 

Well I stand to be mistaken on any of this but as I understand it this in effect is a liar board that just changes the map reading the ecu receives thats all it does, allow more boost. It does not change anything else such as ign adv or retd, this can only be achieved by changing the 40pin chip. And of the 2 basic ecu types (series 1 and 2) series 1 is better than series 2 if chipped because there are more mapping points on the series 1 chip than series 2 if ya get me. The above liar board is okay but when I got to a 210bhp I had to change it for a "proper chip". Thats my understanding, ohh that and changing the chip is not really a diy job, killed an ecu changing mine

 

prob being theres very few people who can proper chip an erst ecu,but saying that ive done many of motorsport development chips for high bhp cars and as long as the car is set up ok there is no problem!

ps,phil no you are right defo not DESTROY IT YOURSELF

 

i have no doupt stu n kenny would do it the other way if it was better as they aint daft!

 

That looks exactly the same as a MSD chip....
