Joe M 0 Posted May 14, 2005 You need the original chip to go back in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted May 14, 2005 Sure about that? The unichip is just a differential device - unadjusted it does not alter the settings of your existing chip. It can be used to modify the profiles of any chip, even non-standard ones. Whether it's worth it is another question... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe M 0 Posted May 14, 2005 It hasnt been mentioned that its a Unichip though, could be anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazymarcel 0 Posted May 14, 2005 Nah its not a UNIchip, Think its a Superchip, I just want it out though but was not given my old chip back at the time, much to my annoyance now, gonna go down shop now and have a good moan about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted May 14, 2005 Sorry, I read the word "unchip" and inserted an "i" ... :) I'm sure stealth or any decent VR6 tuner will have a copy of the standard map they could burn for you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazymarcel 0 Posted May 14, 2005 Cheers dr_mat. Car's going too stealth next weekend so see what they can do about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazymarcel 0 Posted May 14, 2005 Why do you want to go back to the original chip? poor fuel ecomany.... etc? No, fuel economy is about the same with it, just want too rule it out, tryin to sort some running issues out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60Jet 1 Posted May 14, 2005 you may be able to find someone that can remap the present chip to a standard map, depends on the chip I.e If is was an of the self chip then you will need the old chip if it was a rolling road chip setupp then the chip may have been set to your car, therefore you MAY be able to get it mapped to near standard.
