I have a 98-reg Cinq. Sporting - which is highly likely to have a soldered chip in the ECU.

My local breaker has a Punto 55 in at the moment, so I was wondering if I could use this ECU on the Cinq?

In know the Punto 55 ECU has a lower rev-limit than the Sporting ECU, but I'll be taking the chip out and replacing it with my Superchip, which also disables the immobiliser.

Don't want to buy it if it's not going to work, though, as I have been offered a Cinq. ECU elsewhere - but fancied picking one up tomorrow so it's on there ready for the new exhaust on Weds.

Good stuff.... he appears to have a few Puntos kicking around at the moment, I'll have to see if he has a 32mm throttle body and a P75 cam, too....
 
Had thought of that.... but I'd prefer not to touch it - still want an ECU with immobiliser for when it's garaged (I have a rented unit a few miles away) - and one for the track.
