Dave_Si said he put a RS1800 chip in his car and it wouldn't start. They are different ECU's so wouldn't work.

I think what he meant is the Si uses the Zetec engine, so if you had a 1.6 ghia (with the zetec), and an 1.6 Si, which is also the zetec the chip should work, I dont see why not. But you wouldn't necessarily be able to use a 2.0 zetec chip in the 1.6 of course.

Yeh, has to have the same ECU and code..

You'll need one for the si :)
