you need to either get someone to reburn you a stock chip, which will never come out right.....
when they wrote the spoon program to your chip, it erased the stock one, so no, no jumper or anything, just someone needs to burn a program to it, and it will never be as good as the stock one....

or you could just buy a new ecu....i have one to sell(hint hint)

anyway you have to swap teh stock rom chip back in.

yes you can cut one of the jumpers near the chip that was intalled, i will have to fidn a picture or when you post up a pic of the inside of ecu i can tell you what to cut

actually you are in correct, you can not overwrite the stock bin , the way an ecu is chipped is they install a socket some resistors and a jumper wire to tell the ecu to read a none stock or modiffied bin, hence called chipping an ecu,

unless someone was an absolute idiot and did some other crazy modifications to the ecu then he can just cut the jumper,

i stand corrected, i figured they burned the program onto the stock chip and put it back in, overwriting the stock program....

thanks for the info

thats not how p13s work, there is no magic jumper to cut, because the stock program is already on an external rom, so what you need to do is to either pop ur stock chip back in, which sounds like you dont have anymore, or have something burn you a stock bin on a new chip and pop that one in.

the p13 uses an external rom stock, its not like a p28 where you add an external rom. to chip a p13 is jsut desolder teh stock chip and solder a new one in.

yep i stand corrected, my bad i was thinking of the p72/p28 faimly,

so you will need to get a chip with a h22 bin burned to it, sorry about the confusion
