There are a few little things that make me wary of this. Its for a D16, but in the caption it says your are bidding on a b16a2 ecu. I don't think they use the same ecus do they? Then what is up with the tuner shop logos on the "chip" ? Says will work for a usdm car too, so that would make you think that it was written in Japan for Japanese cars. As far as I know, Skunk2 is located in the Bay Area CA. and is not hugely represented in Japan.

I admit that I don't really know.....but these inconsisancys caught my attention.

isnt it usually a bad idea to increase timing under boost

ya it definetly is, at least while under boost. but i'm wondering of the 'turbo' chip has no timing advance, but retains the fuel enrichment, or if they maybe went as far as to program in timing retard under boost situations. that would make it worth the money.
