a standard fiesta turbo can come with either ecu mate,ur best off looking at whats in ur car by either droping the ecu down and looking at whats written onit ,or by looking at what map sensor is fitted as the ofac uses the same as the xr2i and 3i but the ofab uses the webar marelli 1.and as for the chip it has to be ofab for ofab and ofac for ofac.

No no no NO. The OFAC map sensor is completely different to an XR2i and 3i one - its not even the same shape. A XR2i one cannot register boost - just vacuum. If you plug it into an OFAC loom it will lean out on boost and melt a piston. End of
