   i was just wondering. can you get the factory ECU re-mapped or do you have to have a dastek,superchip or similar?.. also would it be possible to put a vts ecu on a lower spec saxo if so would it be beneficail?

   you can get the standard ecu remapped yes, so dont have to get a dastek etc.
   
   you wouldnt see any benefit at all from putting a vts ecu on a lower spec model.

   a remap of the standard ecu is around 300-400 quid, so i'd advise going for a dastek as it'll be cheaper when it comes to having it remapped after every mod.

   dasteks are roughly £400-500 fitted.
   
   check out dasteks web site as they have places all over.
