lo peeps,

I currently have a williams 2L 16V engine in my R19 on the 19 loom, running a 2L 16V ECU, I have a BMC induction, De-cat, Scorpion

I know someone who is selling a chipped 1.8 19 16V ECU based on cams de-cat induction, 7K rpm i think.

and i have been thinking would it be better to use the 2L ECU 16V ECU i am currently using and have this chipped,

or straight swap it out for the 1.8 chipped one..???

Which one and why??
