FishWick 21 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Most people start with the cheapest and easiest option, which is a chip. The standard ECU is fine with those mods. Probably not worth the hassle of standalone but it depends what your local mappers are like? Are they good with Bosch ECUs? Link to post Share on other sites
yakuza racer 16 Posted November 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 they are rubbish kev, it's cheaper to go chip than for them to try and map my stock ecu. Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Ah OK. Probably best to go chip then! Or if you fancy a very steep learning curve, you could go standalone and map it yourself!! I would help you though as I run a standalone on my VR6. Once you've learned it and got used to it, you will never look at Motronic again :-)But definitely the cheap option is a chip though. C2 or Stealth can both send you a chip and help tune it over email from your VAG-COM logs. Link to post Share on other sites
