Your ecu will have some kind of marking or sticker on the case showing it's not a stock item, and the only real way to tell whether you have uprated internals when you have no receipts is to take your engine apart and compare to oem parts.

Hard to read that mate...

Are you saying you have bought a GT which has supposedly got uprated cams, forged pistons and a jam ecu??

I'd just look for a 'JAM' sticker/seal on the ecu and take the cam cover off (to see the cams) first to see if half of what this guy said is true.

Taking the sump off can be a real headache.

Its not common to have uprated cams and forged pistons on a near standard CT9 setup as they are not necessary at that stage.

The JAM ecu will also de-limit speedcut (112mph) and other things such as raising your rev limit past 7200krpm.

Have you experienced the benefits of any of those features?

anyway as said check your ecu should have a sticker on it...going back to your original post saying you dont wana blow it up....doing 135 and revving to 9000rpm will probably be doing ALOT of damaged to your car, particulary if you are running stock rods, probably shoot one through the block at those revs

EDIT: just read your other post and fair enuf i would probably do that in that circumstance!

ye theres tons of info on here, probably one of the most asked questions "hyrbd vs td04" so alot of info to browse through. regarding how much it will cost, there is not set figure and it depends what spec/parts you wana buy....really isnt a ballpark figure when it comes to tuning, depends on your budget too

It depends what you want. Personally I would go td04 all the way,

It all depends on how much money your looking to spend

im running a td04 aswell and love it, ct9 hybrid for faster spool up for road, but td04 for power.....other combinations are the td12 which is a ct12 with td04 internals, or maybe a custom garrett turbo but your looking at alot more ££££
