So I have a 4100 dollar yard ornament. I have a 09 JCW motor on the way with low miles.Since the turbo is larger how will the ecu respond?

The turbo or lower compression won’t be an issue, but you won’t get the benefits of the turbo/motor with out a ECU tune.
I can help you and give you 40-100hp gain. You are more than welcome to email me at MarioPalza@gmail.com for more information

thank you and good luck

after market chip

aftermarket chip would do the trick in stead of remapping the ecu directly due to cost?

no such chip. The ECU has to be mapped for that turbo. The gains are awesome and perfect daily drive ability

after market chip

a after market race chip changes the mapping does it not? controls the same perimeters that a ecu program change does. Is my understating wrong?
what kind of money to get your ecu maped?

Did the Manic Stage II on my JCW and worth every penny. Mario can help you get the tune you want.

^^^^ Mario did my tune...if he says he can help you, he can. There is no chip....the programming is in the ECU.
