It does look that way yes, though to confirm exactly the sticker on the end will verify it. 3 8mm headed bolts and its out. Fingers crossed it has the correct calibration for the EU2 engine in as we'll as your injector codes to match and its not just been cobbled on by the previous owner!

Pete, sorry to hijack the thread.

If a flashable ECU (later NNN type) is used on an earlier (10P) engine, as you say it needs the correct EU2 calibration.

Is this calibration a different "thing" to the actual fuelling file... so if a later NNN ecu is given the correct EU2 calibration can other fuelling files be flashed to the ECU (if for example, one had a nanocom and a handful of different tunes they were playing with),

Or, is the calibration part of the main fuelling file too? so the two files... calibration and fuelling, are "together"

cheers Thumbs Up

Given it may be a newer NNN ECU would it now be worth me buying a nanocom and programming my own remaps? Not sure what the whole story is re programming yet

The calibration is the main fueling mapas you ask and yesit can bechanged and programed with Nanocom in a standard or tuned format to the ecu.

Nanocom use a single file which is ajoint software and calibration file in one.


Johdnyd, yes its an option you can use if you wish but would work out expencive just for a remap.
