You explained this to me Vibs but i have recently met audi 1.8t owners with these chips and both give more bhp and less torque than a superchip. As yet i havent come across any real reason to ditch the chip. For the moment i will be continuing with superchip on the a3 as i have not got a valid reason to change it. Id rather have my increased torque than the larger bhp.

Superchips for the GT do nothing.
This is a Corsa forum

more peak torque means nothing. revo and jabba both give more torque over a wider range

i havent read the whole topic so sorry if this has beeen said:
but when i was taking to a bloke who owns a scooby tuners in essex he was saying he would never provide or advise customers to use superchips as with them being a replacment element u lose all you safety paramenters, what he does is use a systerm which burns a update onto the orginal ecu which does the same job but keeps the safety paramenter installed by the factory

Is a uni chip re-mappable ? I mean say if uve got one on a c20xe thats got a free flow air filter and a performance exhaust, then u swap the manifolds, could u get it updated or would u have to buy another uni chip?

yes you can update it and even switch it to another car if your type of UNICHIP is compatable. basically the UNICHIP comes black ie. all mapping points are 0. then when you adjust them things change.

Could you have a unichip on say a 1.4 16v then drop a 2 litre in and use the same chip? (remapped of course)
