Could this be a JAM ecu?

if there is a board kinda glued in then its an aftermarket ecu mate!

Cool, thanks!

I want to try it out in my car but im bit worried that it might do some damage. Would it be safe to try it out?
And i have an fcd, what setting do i put it to so it doesnt interfere with the fueling?

I've read that things like FCD's and fuel regulator's can mess with these kind of ecu's. I've just put my sard one in, doing the driving in period at the moment.

Well I dont want to remove the FCD until im sure im taking the ecu, i just want to try the it out first to be sure its alright.

What setting do i put the FCD to so that it will be bypassed?

you got a soldering iron? just snip the fcd out and wire it back in after.

or just fire the ecu you and take her easy see what you can rev her to...8k=jam.

btw its nice to see someone different think that they've found somethign in there car.. im certain sigma is only a few weeks away from finding a japanese man in a door panel.

just fitted this ecu about half hour ago, the car is now idleing very low, 400-500rpm.

Also the A/F reading on my a'pexi turbotimer dropped to 10.9 while driving.

Should i give it more time to adjust?

Try driving the car at part throttle for a few miles and see if it starts to run any better. Don't go doing any full throttle, full boost runs though or you may be needing Phil's fiver and Sigma's second hand head gasket.
