ECUTek isn't available for the MY98.

Check out my "Andy F remap WOW!" thread for what you should REALLY do.

Start with Induction kit and full decat exhaust. Then fit a knocklink and add a tickle more boost. After about 280, the turbo will start to hold you back, then you need to look at uprating fuelling and intercooling realistically.
