Default What ECU will this chip I bought fit? L6 or L8??

My car is on Greens & T34. I bought some Greys, and a TurboSystems chip for Greys/T34/Standard comp.

So, my car has a L6 ECU (it's a 4x4 Saff but ECU has been changed in the past).

As the chip I bought was off a 4x4 Sapphire, I'm assuming it was on a L8 ECU, will this chip go into my L6 ECU okay??

as above

chips for either a l6 or l8 are not interchangable; you need the chip to be specific for a l6 or l8 i'm afraid
