Hello there. I have just bought an MX3 in excellent condition. I live in England and have the UK version engine. Can anyone help with the best type of ECU modifications availiable? Cost is an issue as usual! lol.

Thank-you. :D

Man the ebay chips are the best out there! Or you could try a search first

Please note, I'm not after the cheap resistor type, I'm talking about real ones e.g. superchip, star chip, etc...

Don't waste your money, chipping your ecu won't do much for a stock MX-3.

Save up and swap your motor, then thing about power adders.

If you really don't want to do a swap, then you could rebuilt and turbo, or nitrous, but it will cost the same as a KLZE (200hp)

Wot Vanished said. Don't bother with a chip if you're running stock motor. Stock ECU is very well tuned for the motor.
