Does any one have a standard chip or part number for one 16v abf

Ahh cool he accepted my offer of 25 quid on ebay so its worth getting

[Shizzle]

yes definitely and so easy to fit within 15 - 20 minutes had ecu out chip fitted and car running again.

What tool did u use to take the chip out and is the metal chip cover soldered in like the 8v

[Shizzle]

i used a metal pic and slightly pulled the chip up working my way round that hardest part getting new chip in as the pins sort of face away from the chip so you have to squeeze it so it goes in straight.

But a small flat head should do it just have to be careful and patient.

Do you know what the *actual* MPG Increase is? 100 miles is usually around 1/3 of a tank for me...believe its around 30-32mpg average?

[Shizzle]

im not sure obviously every car is different with mileage how you drive ect ect
But there was a definitely a noticeable  increase in mpg on my 175k Engine

Sounding promising! Mines on 182k! My driving is pretty mixed, can't afford to floor it all the time!

Was yours from eBay? Theres a few different ones there at the moment...

The one he had was from the seller Pepoei...or something like that?

I cant wait to fit my lightened flywheel next month just not sure about what clutch to use keep hearing you can use VR6 Clutch.

If this is the case must be like having an uprated clutch sort of with the VR6 being quicker and it has more torque.

My chip made such a difference all round didn't make it super fast but the power is smooth and feels a lot nicer to drive.

Ah off course, I forgot you had that off me ages ago as well.

Thts the seller of ebay buy it now 45 quid he accepted 25 for it so not to expensive for a little mod for the car
