got a mild chip with my new 325 and fancy fitting it. i tried to do it today and i can just see me breaking something so i'll give it a miss. its the double board ecu so its a bit tricky. if theres anyone who knows what there're doing in the ipswich area who's willing to do it for a couple of quid give me a pm.

cheers josh

If anyone can, He can. Ant is a legend and probably the most qualified person in this part of the country.

I had the same issue - had a 164 double board, it drove me POTTY trying to figure out why it wasn't working and how to separate the top from bottom, wasted a lot of time being confused before realising it was me being a bit special :roll:

My solution was to buy a second hand single board from the parts section here and chip that instead! LOL
