Sorry if this has been posted before only just came accross this today. To be honest I dont really understand what this is and any benefits you would see? Can anyone shed any light on the subject?

You can say (insert nasal voice here) 'I have the same ECU map as an ST500'

Maybe this could be a cheeper solution to the starting problems some people have.....Inc myslef! Apparetly you need an ecu update to resolve the starting problem,think it's £80ish from ford, can't really see any other thing it could do!!

Seedy, that is what i thought when i first read about it. I need the ecu update but have put it off due to forking out 80-90 quid. Was wondering if this would do the same thing for less money.
