Just received it today, the instructions seem clear and straight forward but I just know I will break something, anyone in the Surrey area who would be willing to help me install it I would be very grateful !
Also any recommendations as to what's a good air filter to have with this chip ?

Yes they are tricky to fit, make sure you take the usual antistatic precautions. I would stick with the std air filter. I got the full Promax kit:- middle box, chip, K&N and plugs. Didn't like the plugs or filter from previous experience but the chip and box feel better, perhaps a bit like the SE version. Feels a bit smoother in the mid range and torque better especially noticeable in 3rd gear. If you've ever built a PC it's a piece of cake.

Hi Jessi I've literally just done mine yesterday I'd say the trickiest part is undoing the ECU there's a couple of tutorials on you tube that i followed I found the hardest part was opening the ECU, you click up from the back where the ribbon is and then you have to pry with small screwdriver at either end where the multi connector is and then pry carefully in the middle to release the 2 boards apart .the chips have an indentation to one side just make sure you put the new one back the same way .I used you tube as I guide whilst doing mine and pausing in between .hope this helps cheers sam
