Also have a chipped ecu from superchips (has a tag on it ) £20

Tom the chipped ecu is it for the 16v.

If its suitable for my 16v I'll have it.

It was actually bought for my 16v by the previous owner in 1996 directly from superchips, he then removed it to sell the car thinking to sell it on after but i bought the lot. Not too sure what difference it makes. I think if you look on the superchips website they still sell the ecu - http://www.superchips.co.uk/index.ph...cat&Itemid=134.

So a bargain at £20 :rolleyes:

Can you work out postage for us Tom to Dy4 0lp?

Edited to add....can I have the p/n aswell please?

Thanks Nathan

I will get the part number tomorow if that is ok. postage should be no more than 9 quid (trackable)

Theres no rush Tom. I will need some fair weather before I can compare p/n's anyway.

naffa 15-01-10 12:56 PM

Did you manage to get the p/n yet Tom?

Tom C 15-01-10 07:26 PM

The actual part number is 8AO 907 404G And it was superchipped on 28 03 1995. Pics avaliable if you want them

naffa 15-01-10 08:49 PM

Thanks Tom I'll take it.

I'll pm you regarding collection or delivery.

I fitted this Superchips ecu today, not a difficult job at all but a little bit cramped for someone of my build working down in the footwell :lol:

Before putting the trim panels back in I mada sure that the car started and took it for a 'test drive'.

My normal test route takes me onto an industrial estate where its very quiet but today I stuck mostly to the 'black country route'.

In assessing the performance difference I was very careful to not just think the car felt better/worse.

Initial impressions over about 6 miles are of a fre-er revving engine, more responsive throttle, adn increased torque through the rev range but particularly from about 3,600rpm onwards.

So thanks Tom C, that was £20 well spent.

Glad we did business, i have been reading and all i can imagine they do on these superchips ecu's is make the engine run slightly richer over the standard 14.7:1 air fuel ratio ....

naffa 30-01-10 08:48 PM

Aah the 14.7:1 mesurement, stoichometric!

I think the chip also alters the ignition curve and timing because they advertise them with increased fuel economy. Simply increasing the fuelling would do the opposite.

A simple resistor fitted inline could fool the ecu into enriching the fuelling but theres more to it than that.

I drove a few more miles today and its easy to see/feel that the drivability ahs improved with more ability to pull at lower revs in any given gear.

Ahh thats very interesting, and very true! See if you notice any difference in economy then :)

I wonder how much difference a ported head would make? plus a tubular manifold?

naffa 30-01-10 09:04 PM

A ported haed properly done will make a huge difference, if I can get one cheaply enough then I'll probably get to work on it.

The next stage in my mods though is a panel air filter and an inlet cam from the abf engine.

By that time my exhaust will need changing so a stainless custom jobby will be on the cards.

Ah nice one..... whats the abf engine :P How do i tell what head is an abf engine? howmuch are 16v heads worth
