chipping the ECU to resolve the limp mode is like taking a brick to the tail lights because they don't work. the OMP is still faulty and should be fixed.

ya but once ecu is chipped can go with mechanical pump and not havta worry about pump taking ecu out again. right?

by the way, since were on the subject, has anyone ever tried putting an s4 ecu in to take it out of limp mode?
