Any Ecutek dealer will be able to tell you but they'd need the ecu in the car and powered up. Nobody can tell you from a picture of the ecu.

Reason for asking is paperwork says it's running 1.1bar but only running .8 but hesitates at 4-5k and won't boost properly. I've had new spark plugs/throttle body sensor. I've tried connecting the turbo outlet straight to the actuator with a short piece of hose so its running on wastegate pressure alone and it's still won't boost properly. I am banging my head trying to figure out my problem

Fuel pump failing? That would be niticable as revs and boost rise if it's unable to deliver enough fuel

Going into garage tomorrow to see a Subaru specialist. Had enough of changing things. I have a boost gauge and I think it's fuel related

It'll be on a single coilpack and leads so don't worry about the single coil cracking problem.
