No need to write a new ECU, just do as you said, backup ECU and Cal, then write new cal.

It will say Fastchip, like mine did on the last page.

This.

In case you want to do it again, for example do a standard backup and an RSTuner'ed backup.

089 is Ph1 172 129 is Ph2 172 Cup 130 is Ph2 172/182 'normal' IIRC.

Not necessarily, cups are different ratios to normal 172s and Ph1s are different again.

It's really not hard, do it yourself!

Same as mine pretty much then. Either they're both mapped or neither is and I've been driving around in a needlessly slower car, but I'm afraid the answer probably is that it's mapped.

What does your car idle at by the way @LeeRS ?

100% read ECU first - backs up the whole ECU. When I tried mine for the first time it bricked the ECU back to 0000 0000. I'd saved my ECU though so it wasn't a problem, but it would have been if I hadn't!

I think it's standard. But don't quote me on that. @The Fatty has that in his programming history too, but I believe he's been fiddling with his using a mapping tool at some point.

Neither of my plates are on there. I need to drive more dangerously.

Are you saying you can't get PS3s in 195/50/15s? Don't bother spouting 185/55/15 either - many, many people have and do run 195s on the dynamique alloys.

Good tyres on the 1.2 were the difference between me trying to keep up with 172s, and 172s trying to keep up with me. a certain degree of lunacy was required with that though. You clearly have the budget for it, so I'd be running PS3s all day long.

Click disconnect, then turn the ignition off, yes.

Is it too much to ask for me to book a test drive say a week in advance, and the demo car be delivered to my local dealer? I wouldn't even mind paying the fuel for that.

I live next to a pretty big main dealer so I'd hope they had RS models!

No reason why it shouldn't.

Sounds like you've backed up your standard map then accidentally uploaded that rather than the 98 ron one then. The fastchip entry on the ECU history is related to the software used to load that cal, rather than the cal itself. Theoretically you could create a custom map in RSTuner and it would...
