Chipped ECU???

Post by RyanA »

Well, that means your ECU should be set up with a socket and an aftermarket chip. As for the "jun" tune, you need to find out if it's real jun or is it "ebay jun". If it's ebay jun, you are probably gaining nothing from it.

Good thing is, you have a socketed ECU. That means you can have someone burn you a custom chip for your car if you want.
