Does the turbosystems chip remap the ignition????? Cos as far as i know ahmed's the only one to remap the ignition in his chips, all the others just remove the boost limiter! The ahmed chip allows u to run lots of boost without havin to retard the ignition too much to stop it detting, makin it much snappier to drive off boost.
