What year is it?

has someone ground off the tag on the front/left of the head? fishy!
if your throttle body is cable operated then it's agu.. if not then it's a later one with bosch me7.5 management. aum/arz/auq remaps usually cost the same, agu is usually a bit cheaper.

It's 1999,
I think its AGU..
Yes its driven by a cable.... because my friend was jealous, said his is "computer driven" and would rather have a cable.
I have no idea, im not a petrol head :(
So you think its AGU? :)

Yep :smiley:
As toph says has the code been ground off?

Oh, i guess not, I dont know, I wasnt 100% sure what i was looking for, I looekd all over, but couldnt see anything, nor could my mate.
It's cool though, thanks for the advise.
Question, the remap, how long does it take? Like do they need to just connect to the ECU? or take it out etc?
-
Depends where you go. Some places take the chip out still, others use obd flash tools. Occasionally the chip has to come out anyway if the flash writes are unsuccessful.

R tech can now do an AGU through the OBD port :wink:
Takes mins as long as your car is in good order / no fault codes :smiley:
**Edit beat by toph :laugh:

Ok, so if they leave it in and flash it, how does that take?
-
depends where you take it. usual rtech process takes 90 minutes - 2 hours with the dyno runs and diagnostics.
-
Ok great, thanks for help :)

Would it up my 0-60 aswell as top speed??
AGU stage 1 remap put my 0-60 down to.....?

PM'd you back, fella. :afro:
0-60 down to approx. 7 secs (maybe late 6's) from 8.5 & top speed is unaffected as it's limited by the gearbox/ratios.
-
Ah I see!
Well thats what im after ;) 0-60.... cant go faster then 70 in england anyways :P
Lol.
Sounds good to me though.
Cheers, got the PM. And yeah I do have a AGU! ;)

0-60 figures are pretty useless, really. 30-*** is where it all happens. ;)
-
Ahaha ;) Yeah, indeed, I like how it's *'ed yet, its 3 digits :P
-
Typo!!! :P
-
Lmao, something tells me not ;)
God I cant wait for this weekend!!
Hopefully remapped! Getting dump valve, air filter and getting my door sorted ;)
