Hi All,

After talking to the previous owner , it seems that the 2nd ecu is an original one , the extra chip is an original , and the superchip is coming from Superchip Inc in the US not from the UK that is explaining why the chip has a diff nrthen the 13121 we normally see on a superchip ,

Gave these people a call today for some tech support regarding the FCD... sorry sir we dont support your chip anymore .... to old product ... now thats service .....
:banghead:
anyone who could help me figuring this one out ? how can i see if the Feul cut off is active or not ?

grtz de_stanny.

The Supershit chip is designed to work with an MBC and is identical to a stock chip but without fuel cutoff. When the wastegate sticks closed, you'll be able to spin the wheels in second gear.

Been there, done that, got the T shirt, ripped out the hidden MBC and chip and converted to an Everest.

Hi All,

yes just to confirm , the supershit does cut the fuel if boosted to high .... had the issue today again... it seems there is a diff between the superchips from the 2 diff company's....
I even logged it with elanscan and yes i hit 0,92 bar and there came the engine check light .... code 31....

grtz
