I was going to use it with my throttle bodies, but im not using them anymore so its been sold.
You could fit it yourself if you wanted but you can get one supplied fitted and mapped for £400.
Heres what i got in an email from Unichip
As for power gains it is very hard to say as no two petrol engine are the same. If you want a rough guide then 5-9% increase in power and torque wouldn't be far away for a N/A Car. For a Turbo depending on how much you can turn the boost up by you should see a gain of 15-20% more power but a massive increase in torque.
I've taken the liberty of pasting in a semi-standard response, which may help you to learn more about the Unichip & its lesser known functions.
As you are probably already aware the Unichip is a piggy back computer, that works in harmony with your standard ECU, it is mapped specifically to your car, and allows the operator to program it exactly to suit the thousands of differences from one car to next, that pre-programmed chips can't take into account, such as cam timing, manufacturing tolerances, different fuel qualities and pressures, and any aftermarket components.
Therefore we don't really go in for saying what power increase you will get, instead what we do promise is that at full throttle you will have the maximum power available safely, and at part throttle the car will be as economical as possible. At the end of the day, all any chip or engine management system is doing is to provide the correct amount of fuel in relationship to the amount of air being consumed, and ignite it at the correct time, so provided that they are equally accurate, they should all come out with the same result, providing they are mapped to the individual engine in question by a competent tuner on an accurate dyno.
This is where the Unichip wins, as they are not for sale pre-programmed, but mapped to each car by a skilled tuner on a dynamometer, we don't supply Unichips to anyone who doesn't own their own dyno. If at any time in the future, any changes are made i.e. cams, headwork etc. simply pop back into any authorised Unichip dealer, where the Unichip can be remapped to suit.
The Unichip offers more than just timing and fuel adjustments, we can do more than most sub £1000 race ecu's (this is ECU only, not including mapping costs!), such as launch control, shift lights, variable cam control, full throttle gear changes, nitrous control, ignition correction when nitrous is activated, etc..
The UNICHIP can be used for the following functions:
Alter ignition timing in a 3D map down to 0.1degree resolution.
Alter fuel mixture in a 3D map by +-50%.
Control variable valve timing.
Control variable induction systems.
Control turbo wastegate solenoid systems.
Record maximum boost pressure.
Record maximum RPM.
Water injection control.
Nitrous oxide control.
Automatic secondary map when water or nitrous is active.
Automatic switch back to primary map when water or nitrous is low or de-activated
Road speed governor delimiting.
Calibration of electronic speedometers.
Conversion of electronic speedometers from KMH to MPH.
Drive additional fuel injectors, with variable blend control.
Launch control.
Full throttle gear changes.
Idle speed stabilization.
Conversion to individual throttle bodies on certain cars.
Conversion of mechanical injection systems to full 3D fuel & ignition control.
Conversion from flap type Air Flow meters to less restrictive Hot Film meters.
Multiple maps to suit different fuels.
Shift lights
Alter or implement rev limits
Alter or implement boost limits
