Acutally. i bought a chipped ecu...its soldered in there...

i have a stock ecu and then i have a chipped ecu i just bought it because it would be easier to deal with warranty problems.

good choice, you can always take the ecu apart (4 torx) to make sure the chip is in there and that

it's not a stock eprom.
