No mate, no base map on it...

I bought it locally over here in holland.

But when you buy one in the US they don't cost much.
You have to build the board yourself though.

the hole set cost me about 950 € , thats build with sensors, lambda kit etc.

That's a lot ... I bought mine from RS-Autosport.com assembled for way less then that. But I got only MSnS version with no extras like wiring or lambda... By the way what sensors are you talking about? your car should have all of them there, you only need to calibrate them with Easy therm.

Ecu alone was € 300 ( about 200 pounds ) assembled.
Extra's are 4 bar mapsensor, launchcontrol,boostcontrol.

Rest was lambdakit, wiringloom, airchargetemp. sensor, tps sensor, cps ,sensor,fusebox

I saw a fusebox at burtons for ~5 GBP was thinking of getting one, but all the other stuff like sensors, wiring came from 1.6 EFI escort almost for free
But anyway your instalation should go way easier then mine

The bigger mapsensor, boostcontrol etc. aren't added in the 300 € .

Anyway i know it's a lot of money

I must admit i'm not an electronic wizzard so chose the easier route

My 4 bar map sensor was at extra cost too, but boost control as far as I know is a software thing and costs nothing

On the EFI manifold there is a place for IAT sender, so just plug the one on the charge carrier.

For the FIDLE valve right? I have the same problem, but was thinking of using that old IAT hole for that with some small 90 degree albow threaded into that hole and longer ruber pipe to connect to the valve.

To wing: do you know that there are ALOT of rover models and this way you tell us nothing

No, you will not go wrong, but if you knew the difference between MFI and EFI pumps you would newer even had a thought that it would struggle
