Do you mean getting it 'chipped'?

I'm talking about getting an ECU chip, that is the type. If thats your terminology for it, then yes. Its the ECU upgrade chip.

You'll need to be a bit more specific, MO... do you mean a "plug-in" that you attach to the existing ECU to overboost the turbo for example? Or do you mean an upgraded engine map that can overwrite what is already there via the OBD port? For the record, the remap approach is considered the safer and more effective route.

There is plenty here about "chipping" if you search Thumbs Up

You can get a the ECU remapped, but on a petrol engine you get about 25hp increase, not much for the price. '08 RRS TDV8
