    by the way thanks Mr JLT for those links! led me to drivesport and they look like the above upgrade might fix some of my boost and tuning issues, replaces the currently pulley with a smaller pulley to get boost up to 8psi new injectors and tune to solve the current running lean issue and get rid of all the friggin errors

    can anyone who can reflash your ecu do a C2 flash?[/QUOTE]

    the Ecu will have to be sent to C2 if you want C2 software or if you want United motorsprt software sent to Jeff Atwood. And let them know what other mods you are running on the car. Ie headers, Exhaust,cams,cat or no cat.

    why's that they won't C2 let anyone flash the ecu's in Aus?

    whats the best way if you dont want your car off the road? buy a spare ecu? do they need your current ecu program? looks like ecu's are around $250-300 cost me more than that to rent a car for 2 weeks.

    Because there are no authorized C2 or United motorsports dealers in Australia. If there was the ecu would say local. I did have a few R32 Ecu's with different software but have sold them all. I do have a unitronic BT chip module but that wont do you any good unless you want to go turbo. I think getting an extra ecu would be easier for you and the immobilzer defeat will be removed so you can use the ecu in any MK4 R32

    So you can buy an MK4 ECU you dont have to buy the specific ECU for your car? Does it have to be from Australia or can be US UK etc?

    depends on the car, you generally need to get something very similar for things to work out.
    I personally got C2UK to source me a golf 4motion ECU to flash and then use in my Bora.
    The cars/motors are very similar so it worked.

    Be warned that getting the immobiliser defeat may affect your warranty, particularly if you dont have an aftermarket one in the car.

    Beware with stuff from the US, there are some differences, particularly with rear 02 sensors in the vr6 motors.

    I'd talk to DNATuning on here, they may be able to help you out with a suitable custom flash for your car.
    Current: '04 Astra SRI Turbo - EDS IPF Flash, 3" TBE, Quaife LSD
    Previously: Bora 4mo, cams, coilovers, tune, exhaust, brembo's etc

    I Believe you would have a BDE motor (different from the earlier AUE)

    022 906 032 BJ was mine, but 022 906 032 BG is compatible also
