So I'm screwed with a silver 413 ecu and this chip:

Hey Eric,

My laptop took a dump last week, so I've been holding off on replying to a few people rather than reply from my phone... I am hoping to have it back today or tomorrow, so I will get back to you then.

Thanks,
Matt

Only if you also have the correct chip.

All chips get cheaper if you email me and ask about a r3v discount. matt at racersmarket dot net

Matt-

Sent you an e-mail about this the other day-did you receive it?

Thanks!

Fantastic!

You can use a 506 chip with a silver label ECU and a clipped wire and it will work splendidly. You cannot use a 413 (non-ews delete) chip with a 413 red label though as it will still throw an EWS code.

Can't you just clip a wire or something and delete ews?

x6000 is the ecu connector, right? thank you.

The EWS wire is pin 66 on the x6000 connector. Solid green wire.

Someone said the 506 is more adaptive but i call BS. Im pretty sure the chip is the only difference.

[hoveringuy]

What's the difference between the 413 and the 506?? (besides the chip)

Actually, TRM is showing the EWS delete chip for $204.95.

DOH! I should have checked their site first. I did buy MY chip for $100 around September-ish.

Personally i would rather start with a non EWS platform as it leaves more options in chips and more then likley cheaper in the long run. Plus its just removing one more variable of problems that could happen.

EWS delete chip is $100 the racers market.

either way, good deal.

I was recently thinking about the 413 red or silver label discussion. I had kept thinking that I really just needed to concentrate on finding a red label 413 for my future S52 with OBD1 swap...but then I came to the realization that the factory chip in a 413 isn't going to have the correct tune for my application, as it would be suited for an M50.

You are going to pay around $250 for an S52/OBD1 chip in most cases. The silver label 413's seem to sell for half of what red labels do (just from my recent searching) because they have EWS enabled. Seeing as that $250 will get you the proper S52/OBD1 chip with EWS deleted, it makes sense to just go ahead and save money on the silver label 413 DME.

Am I correct on this, or is my lack of sleep taking over? Of course this would only apply to S50/S52 motors-not the M50.

Just bought a red label for $100. Much better than a $300 chip.
