Just recieved the ARD green tune in the mail today for my 96 850 turbo, anyways i want to install it correctly, so a few questions, what procedure should i go through before installing, while installing, and after installing, secondly there are two ECU cores i believe so which one do i remove and replace with the ARD chip?

all responses will be appreciated, thanks.

Can you post what they said?

well my main question was for which core to replace, and the answer is the one that says bosch, the other one with asian lettering is the trans controller

"No need to disconnect battery. You'll replace the ECU that has the BOSCH label on it. The Aisan Label is the trans computer."

Glad to be of service and thanks for taking the time to post up for others.

As a side note we include a brief doc with our ECU upgrades that outlines the proper 'learn in' procedure to maximize adaptations during the first few minutes of driving. That's essentially all that is necessary when you install a new upgraded ECU from ARD.

Thanks, feel free to post up any ?'s
