Has anyone else used or heard of anyone that uses one of the chips that are currently selling on ebay Item Numbers below. Do they actually work and are they safe???
Item number: 8033713936 and Item number: 8032413654
Thanks

8033713936 is the one to go for. It has a map which has been proven to be safe over MANY MANY users and miles. Good for the money.
IMO 8032413654 is dog **** for the money. I can source them myself for £80 quid! This guy sells um at £220! The map is not half as good as the other chip (its not even the sellers map) and then there are issues with its duty cycle and mismatch with the impreza injectors. spend the extra and go for scotts chip or a custom map from somewhere like scoobyclinic.
Trust me

fuel and boost controller
was going to buy one of these chips until i asked a little advice from dp motorsport recently.
i was advised there that if you do go down this route for extra power you are wasting your time.they said the chips are not mapped fully at preset revs and just throw a load of fuel in which gives problems to bore wash and other associated problems.told me to go the boost and fuel controller route and must say was quite jemmed up and full of info.
anyone else got a story to tell on which route to go?

My maps certainly don't run any richer then standard. Certainly not mapped to 'just throw a load of fuel in'.
In most cases v.slightly leaner. Standard is quite rich anyway on all but the STi 1 RA.
I don't suppose they sold you the boost controller did they ?????
I've sold over 130 units on & off over 4 years and not had one complaint.

Although he reported better performance, I didn't realise who he was until after the sale.
Hence now I am concerned about my map ending up on his chips. I have emailed him with my concerns, but have had no reply
