Gents,

If I change the ecu on my 100hp, will it need to be put on the examiner to marry everything back up (Proxy alignment?)

Thing is, I'd like a remap. I might get a second hand ecu and send it off to the land of Schmokes and Pancakes to be redone. It's a bit easier than putting the whole car in a large Jiffy bag.

fao others, I know I can get a piggyback or aftermarket ecu but I don't want to go down that route.

I'm not sure but i'd be very interested in the answer!

Not sure how much of this is applicable, but people have done this on VAG cars and have said there are the following caveats....

- the new ECU will need coding to the dashpod and immobiliser
- the map you have installed on the chip will have to be fairly conservative as it can't be set up for the car
- the price of a new ECU is around £800 and second hand ones seem to be just as desirable!

Not sure how much of that is relevant to Fiat, but I too will be watching this thread with interest

I think it would be better in the long run todo a road trip to europe and have the work done.

be like a mk2 punto i reckon, virgin ecu just needs rev to 5k 3 times when engine is hot, they call it phonic wheel learn or some thing like that
