Think he used it alot in the early days and ha nothing but headaches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 23/02/11 08:55 PM Share Posted 23/02/11 08:55 PM I have installed and tuned VIPEC V88 ECU's on both BA XR8 and BA XR6T, they work great and also controlthe factory DBW.However if your car has FORD 4 SPD auto then there are issues with LIMP MODE.If it is manual or the 4 spd auto has been changed to a C4 or TH400 etc then no worries.
