I don’t think the supercharging was a great success. One or two of these cars may have drifted back to the UK – in which case someone may know about them.

I have heard that Sprintex amended the standard ECM software that also had a secondary ECU attached to it. It sounds a bit like the Mitsubishi Magna supercharged 6 cylinder that had a piggy-back attachment affixed to the Magna’s ECM.

His car is presently languishing on his lawn – unable to start. My only suggestion is to remove the supercharging gear from his car and install a virginised KV6 ECM.

He would welcome suggestions, as he is anxious to get his car back on the road.

Before they go any further does the immobilised icon display on the ipk? Try hooking up T4 and in security or engine management and not if mobilised or not.
