Send an email to digitaltuning and ask them. And are you sure it's N318--I've never heard of one of those.

I would say no as the board layout is different.

The Rtek chips were for N332 and N333 series. With a N318, you are not even using the same wiring.

Can you even go over 110MPH without hitting fuel cut with that ECU?

Email Digital Tuning they should be able to tell you.

The JDM speed limiter is triggered from the gauge cluster. Without the JDM gauge cluster and the wire from the cluster to the ECU the limiter won't work.

I emailed Rtek and they said a big no, only N332 and N333. Guttered.

not sure now, but i think sbd is running Rtek chip on his S4 TII euro ECU (N344) which in stock form is interchangeable with N332 or N333 (thats something i could confirm).
I haven`t seen N318 ECU, but i would say it will work too...

on the jdm gauge cluster you just have to peel a sticker and turn a tiny screw on the back of the cluster to defeat the speed limiter
easier than swapping out clusters too!
