Its a fuel ecu gold in colour. Turbo bricks will give a list of what can and can't be chipped.

Supported engine management systems: LH2.4 and LH2.2. Motronic ML1.1 chips can be supplied on request.

The naturally aspirated 8v redblocks are not supported because the "bang for your buck" is too small. Sure, the driveability will be much better and it will have all the benefits the other cars have with a chip, but it will not gain any real power.
According to this it is a chippable box as the car was a 2.0T, but maybe some of you will know by the numbers.....

All the ECU'S are chippable but EZK's are not, you need to look for the socket below.
