Does anyone have any info on this?

Like what settings are different to a standard ECU?

Am i right in thinking its setup for the Pug Sport cams, intake and exhaust systems?

Is it unlocked so it will just plug straight into a single plug loom without messing about with keys and transponders?

Theres not alot of info on Special Tunings site.

Think i can remember someone AAAAGES ago saying its shit on cold starts and the map could be alot better?

what about torque any difference? would the components e.g cams system etc.. work better than equivalents on the market?

It's a mild setup for cup cars, with a 150bhp limit, they are built to regulations.

There is far better out there. Back in the days of the pgti forum a few people had them, pretty sure fmp had one, decided it was shit so bought an omex and GMC bodies, and that's the engine that ryans selling at the moment.

Because i have an account with pugsport france, i can get most stuff a LOT cheaper than UK prices, i have done plenty of group buys on torsion bars etc. Unfortunately a lot of products are being discontinued right now so UK stock is all that remains :(

I've got one and yes the cold start is noy even there it's a bit of a pian but then i didn't pay alot for the ecu. It just looks like a standard ecu but once warm runs very well i just need to get the car on the rollers to see what it making
