Cloning, options and warranty
Cloning on request is free – send the faulty ECU or files from it and we will transfer the data to this unit. For an extra charge we do chip tuning, EGR OFF and DPF OFF. Warranty: 6 months.
Why choose Virgin
The Virgin version needs no programming: the ECU adapts itself to the car and immobiliser, provided the numbers match and the immobiliser works. The IMMO OFF version (on request) also starts the engine, but leaves the immobiliser error and red message until it is programmed – which is why Virgin is the better choice.
