That is the injection ECU (the silver one that is opened) normally the boost / ignition ECU would be the one that is chipped (the black one with a vacuum port on it).

you dont even need to "chip" it , just raise the boost manualy , the ignition and fuel is mapped for 155 bhp ... That is the reliable limit for the already strengthened transaxle ...But then you need koni or similar front dampers to stop the front raising on acceleration and getting torque steer....
