Thanks Martin for the warm reception!!!

John!!!

 

Hello & welcome to LADS []

What is it fitted to at the moment ?
Probably best just to post the numbers on the label or a clearer picture of the label.

It looks like a STI ECU from what I can see, and that WONT be compatable due to the higher rev range of the STI.

If your specifically after a Prodrive ECU its worth considering that you may also need to decat your centre section & change the Intercooler pipes for Samco / Prodrive (to handle the increased pressure) to get the best gains from the map.

Thanks Chris! I already have a decated centre section and prodrive hoses on the intercooler !!! just wondered if this is a prodrive ecu??? its fitted to a my99 uk turbo 2000 apparently ???

thanks John.

 

Its hard to tell off your pictures - what EXACTLY is printed on the label ?

Should be ok if its running a UK 99 without problems.

There are alternatives BTW.

Chris

 

It says on the bottom line A18-000 DIX if thats anything to go off ???

John.

 

Nope

 

PPP ECUs from MY97-MY00 are labelled STi.

If its currently in a UK MY99/00 and the cam/crank wires have not been swapped on that car then I think its fairly certain to be a PPP ECU rather than a STi5/6 ECU.

i have an MY99 with PPP.
my ECU is labelled "STI" and also labelled "PRODRIVE".

 

i can do you a piccie tommorrow if you want.

 

THANKS meanandgreen IF YOU WOULD DO SOME PICS THEY WOULD HELP!. THE ONLY THING IS I HAVE JUST PURCHASED THE ABOVE ECU, BUT I DONT WANT TO FIT IT IF IT WILL CAUSE A PROBLEM!!!
THANKS JOHN.

 

If it is the correct ECU don’t forget to get the keys security codes changed to match the ECU, other wise you just plug it in and away you go, also the olive in the boost solenoid pipe needs changing if I remember correctly.

MY99/00 Doesn have keycoded immobiliser, only UK/Euro/Oz spec MY97/98s had that. MY99/00 ECUs are plug and play, unless it is a jap spec ECU and then the car won start because as I said above the cam/crank sensor wires are reversed.

Andrew...

 

just wondering were will i find ecu? is it in engine bay? or under glivebox/steeringcolume?! coz mine is meant to be a pro drive one as well! soon find out though!

 

its under the carpet passenger footwell

 

nice one i will look after!
dont presume you know wot psi i should be running on my 99 turbo 2000

 

about 1.0bar[?]

 

I have now fitted my Prodrive Ecu and the boost pressure is now showing 1.16 bar on my Secs Monitor but i dont know how accurate this is ??? it may be just a spike in boost !!!

John.

 

its on 17psi is that too much? or not enough?
