It was before the age of Ecutek (bought it new in 1999) so never even thought of the ecu. Even had a Forge VTA dump valve on for all those 50k miles, complete with flames.
Car ran perfectly ok, it did have the normal hesitation at 3k when cold but I drove round that. Shame I sold it really, but its still going strong with a re-map at 90k
