ECU Re-chip... who does it?

[Mike]

hey guys,

i just purchased an ECU from NZ, the same as the faulty one I currently have.

Its chipped for the Supercharger, so i want to install it into the new ECU.

What companies here in Perth are capable of doing this for me? unsolder and resolder type of job...

Thanks
Mike

what motor/car?

TV repair man should be able to do that.

also wouldnt the chip not work well in perth since it was tuned in NZ which has a much lower mabient temperature?

you recon? i know they work with precission electronic boards etc but you can get replacements for those - i can't replace what I have...

UPGARAGE: CRX.

the ECU is coming from NZ, its the same type of ECU which I already have here - except mine has a busted output for an Atmospheric Pressure Sensor and I can't rev over 3000rpm (runs in limp mode).

The Chip works, its worked in a car before...

[Lui]

Thats right, they have the experience to do that. A lot of people use TV repair shops to socket their ecu's. Take it there and ask them if they can do it.

its worked in a car in nz though
colder inlet temps in nz so your car will probably ping

i didnt say the 'chip' worked in a NZ car thought. The ECU im getting is coming from NZ. The ECU I got - god knows where that came from originally and its broken (this broken ecu has the chip) - it could have been the US for all I know. But I know the chip worked on a car here... in australia - so ambient temperatures don't have anything to do with it...

ah k
no worries
i thought you were talking about a remapped chip that you were swapping into your ecu

[Mike]

hehe... swapping just the chip into a new ECU.

I hope its easily removable and it won't be stuffed up :(
