im thinking of going for this with Andy at GDI over the unichip.

Has anyone had any experiance with one?

also would this be suitable for possible TBies at a later stage??

Iv emailed andy but awaiting a reply, just wondered if anyone else had any info about them?

cheers

I mailed him and got a quote of £600 fully fitted and setup on my 172.

Just saving up now!

Much more user friendly and comparable Uni chips arent any cheaper. There are several unichips available with varying degrees of adjustability.

You wont be able to run TBs with it as its still using the OE ECU settings, but input signals are altered to confuse or trick the ECU into delivering output signals that would usually be used elsewhere in the rpm badn, throttle position, map values and lambda values.

BUT, if your really determined you could adapt the ECU to run throttle bodies. But with the ISCV, MAP problems at idle (leakage/bleeding) its not worth the time and its far easier, and no more expensive to run a new ECU which can be had for 450 quid.

is it not worth running a new ecu now then rather than going for the piggy back chip?

If you want, but the cost of mapping goes up as you need to spend ALOT of time mapping from scratch, at least a few days as we need to sort the cold start erichment as this only works properly when the car is stone cold after a nights rest.

piggyback is tweeking standalone is a clean sheet of paper.
