here's mine for the FSTI. spare one works fine. obviously cant remote lock / unlock but works a treat. If yours was a Litchfield / semi official import, it may have an immobiliser fitted ?

I have exactly this setup. think it cost me about £45 to get the spare cut from timpsons. Expensive, just for a key but i was paranoid I would be locked out if I didnt get it sorted at the very second I walked past the shop. As a side note, i also have a cat 1 alarm fitted which has a fob of its own for remote locking.

plenty

I'm astonished how economical mine is. It's as fast as my RB320 was with the same engine (342bhp remap helps), weighs 100kg more and is less aerodynamic but it's about 20% more economical averaging 26mpg. Not sure how that's possible but I'm not complaining. The other day I was stuck on the A12 in 40/50mph zones for 30 miles and it averaged nearly 40 (by my calculation).
Likely your remap improving MPG as well as power.
