Fitting Ecu Chip From 190bhp Model?

Hi,

I have a Celica VVTi (1999) 140bhp, and have a "contact" that can install an ECU chip as fitted to the 190bhp for a cost.

I want to know exactly what performance gains I will get, as obviously the car is a standard 140bhp, no mods at all. What does the 190bhp model have internally besides the different chip? Will there be any ill effects to fitting this chip?

Thanks in advance

Alan

:!Removed!: The 190 has a different head so i would imagine it wouldnt make any difference, you be better off de-cating it and a induction kit. the head is the difference between the 2 not the ecu. in fact it probs wouldnt even run with a 190 ecu. as the engine setups are different. :unsure:

So the better benefit "cheap" tuning options are...? (for the 140)

TIA
