Dear Alan:

If I bought my chip at Donington last year, what version would that be? If it is not the latest V4 chip, could I bring it with me this year (assuming I make it) and exchange/upgrade etc. to the latest V4 chip (for a fee, of course) or should I express it to you now?

Sincerely,

Algirdas

Elanlover wrote:Alan, forgive me if you already made this obvious but perhaps you can tell me what I need to do here. I currently have a V4.2 (could be 4.3 though) and I'd like to simply upgrade that to the latest V4 version. I'll go with that for now before I think about a V5 and switcher.

So, what's required on my end besides money of course Do I need to remove the chip and send it back to you first? Do you simply send me a new one and I return the old one after? Cost? Thanks and sorry for being a pain.

Look at my site, specifically here

Either, whatever you prefer.

If you make it to Donington will you have any SST 9930 V4 Everest chips for upgrading with you? I would like to upgrade there weather permitting.

Geoff

I'll have some boards, blank chips and a burner.

Please excuse me if you've answered this somewhere else in this thread already, but does this setup cover S2's too?

As you might remember I was hoping to switch to closed-loop control, and have already earmarked an O2 sensor which I should be picking up from Sy at Donington (please don't forget it Sy )!

Being as this should be a straight bolt-in it should only remain for me to unplug the CO pot, put an S2 chip in and see if it works.

So if your new setup is switchable between SE's and S2's then it will do me perfectly and I'd like to sign up for one.

You'll notice on my site I have both open loop (9929/9930) and closed loop (1499/9949) versions of the switcher. I could mix 9929 (banks 0-7) and 1499 (banks 9-15) programs instead if you prefer.

A final addition to my string of posts - I've switched the site to http://elanchips.com which should be easy to remember.

Dear Alan:

From the other posts, it appears that you will be doing upgrades at Donington on the fly. I'll bring the chip with me assuming I can get away.

Hope to see you there.

Sincerely,

Algirdas

Hopefully I will see you there Saturday then.

Thanks Gary

Got Alans fantastic switcher kit today, Niceeee :-D

Once u have the ECM out remove the box shape access panel and this part will not fit back on as the switcher adaptor is slightly more bulky. The switcher adaptor fits in to were ESM old chip is, so u have to remove that 1st but to get the adaptor to fit u will have to notch the main cover (by about 5mm) U`ll understand more from the pic`s below. I`ve also place the digital switcher in the spare slot next to the hazard switch :-D

That DOES look nice! :smt023

Bugger - should have done a test fitting :roll:

Neat installation Monty.

I presume you're going to test out the kit and extra oomph on your next trackday.

With the lid permanently off, what are you going to use to keep the gravel out of the ECU? :poke:

Good one. I'll bet that little 360 spin out video clip in his signature is the first time he stepped on it in V5 mode ;-)

Actually i fitted the switcher adaptor the other way 1st time round but the engine wouldn`t start and the fuel pump was continuously on :roll:

I`m at Cadwell this saturday, thinking of putting the access panel back on and just cut a square section for the chip and maybe stick something over it
