Ok, well theres no need to justify your actions on here as we both know the reality of the situation.

As stated in my PM to you, no hard feelings, good luck and all the best.

Hmm. And I don't suppose for one moment that you'd happen to be chancing your arm by claiming to have returned something that you bought, without any proof of posting it, and repeatedly demanding a refund for something that you probably never sent?

Hi Maurice,

Not sure if you got my PMs a few weeks ago, but I'm hoping you could confirm that the chip I paid for on Jan 4th has been sent. I ordered a wild chip for a M20B25, 173 ECU.

Do you have a tracking number?

Thanks.

Just try the mild chip today for the first time I feel improvements on lower torque feel more power.

I will try Saturday on long range.

Thank you Speedtouch

Mild - great chip - much more low rev torque - happy around town in 3rd, much more drive-able as a daily car, took it for a blast at 200kph- really lovely, doesn't miss a beat.

Easy transaction too.

I have just completed the process of installing the (073 ECU) chip on my 1987 Tech 1 Sport.
Due to my car being an early model there was a little bit of extra work involved in installing the chip. Maurice advised me through the entire process and was happy to answer all of my questions.

My car certainly idles better and is smoother and more responsive through the entire rev range.
If you are a little unsure about whether to purchase one of these chips, dont be. They definitly work and are a bargain when you consider the improvements gained.

All in all, Speedtouch (Maurice) is a great zoner who can certainly be trusted.

Hi Maurice

I also have not received the chip that was paid for last October. Please provide me with the tracking number.

Thanks

Hi,

Tracking number is actually RU900739652GB. A check on Royal Mail's tracking service (www.royalmail.com) today states this:

"Item:
RU900739652GB


Service
International Signed

Latest update: It's on its way

Your item, posted on 15/02/17 with reference RU900739652GB has arrived in JOHANNESBURG SOUTH AFRICA and is being processed for delivery."

Quite why it's taken so long to reach you I don't know, but it's somewhere in SA, at least!

I installed a mild chip on a m20b25 prefacelift. The old Motronic ECU needed modifying which was a surprise, but Speedtouch was very helpful and as it is a common thing to do, lots of info available on the net.

I'm now 50 miles in and can already feel a difference. Car feels smoother and keen to rev when needed. No flat spots or hesitations.

Very pleased :)
Moredoor autos with small engines are cool - but my new m20b25 is awesome!

Mild chip for m20b20 - chip survived the trip to Australia safe and sound. Easy to install, following the instructions on here.

It's early days, but so far I can say the car is running as smooth as silk (it was pretty good beforehand to be fair). I'm not sure how much of this is in my head, but the engine seems to sound a lot sexier, and around 4500rpm there's a nice kick. Will be fun to test it more. Can't go wrong for the price.

Thanks!

Hello, the chip arrived this morning, swaped the chip and ecu (i have a secondary dme just for it). The first start was like normal however on the first few meter i could notice the difference in low rpm range torque.

Couldnt drive more at higher speed but i can already from a 10km trip, tell the car feel for "aggressive" or powerfull? (dont know how to call it in english), more responsive at every rpm range. Can also notice the engine has a bit changed it sound to something slightly more sexier (well i'm talking of a 100% stock e34 m20b20 so nothing very fancy right)

After 50km, i can tell the engine is really more responsive from 50 to 80kmh (couldnt drive faster), it feel like it want . Did it few times on 3rd and yeah it's incredible.
It's way more enjoyable, even in town it's impressive. At cold or hot it's awesome.

Thanks for this m20 revival :mrgreen:

Fast delivery, very good communication, dont hesitate to get one yourself, your m20 deserve it and will thanks you.

Hi all, I put the mild chip into my 91 e30 325 motorsport cab.
Was a little sceptical about the claims but they were unfounded.
The car feels different,more power and pulling beautiful to the new red and line sounds fantastic.
I wish I’d done it sooner, it’s made the car even better.
This chip makes such a difference and for the price it’s incredible..!!
Cheers Speedtouch.. 👍😊

Thanks Simon
