I bought a simple ethernet breakboard for my arduino and ended up with no code space left becos the tcp/ip library was taking a lot of space ...
so as a replacement for my ENC28J60, I was wondering if esp8266 had a complete ip stack in its chip ?


I'm not really certain what you are asking .... the title implies DHCP but you seem to be concerned about the "complete IP stack." ?
Maybe this link will answer whatever you are wanting to know.

Generally speaking, I do not answer silly, overly simple questions as there are lots of members asking for examples and requesting code validations. We are a volunteer community, not supported by the ESP8266 manufacturers or chip designer.

It is my understanding that the Espressif group designed the IP stack around work done for Contiki. If you need to know more, you can always download volumes of documentation in PDF format... most has been translated from the original Chinese.
OpenSource components of the SDK are based on:

lwIP, http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/lwip/
Contiki, http://www.contiki-os.org/
axTLS, http://axtls.sourceforge.net/
wpa_supplicant, http://w1.fi/wpa_supplicant/ (source withheld by Espressif)
net80211/ieee80211 (FreeBSD WiFi stack), http://www.unix.com/man-page/freebsd/9/NET80211 (source withheld by Espressif)


If you have a specific question about TCP/IP or DHCP, then please ask specific question(s). There is sufficient expertise here but you may have to wait a day or two. If you are an impatient type, then you decision to exist the forum is likely the best decision.
