Hi all, after recent research im in a position where I want to buy a prodrive ecu for my my00 uk impreza turbo 2000. after reading a few different conflicting threads I just want to be sure before I get buying and fitting etc.
so...
Are they literally just plug and play items.
And I have found one with these part numbers for sale, will it fit?? if not what do I need to look for.
Its an STI Sp pink sticker 10010 56010 A18-000 DV8 7z26.
the ecu on the car now is a stock green label y7.
manythanks in advance. aaron

 

The ecu with the numbers you have given is for a v4 97-98 impreza and will have a yellow socket so no good for a v5 impreza.

 

If you find the correct one (A18-000 DIX) it is indeed plug and play.

 

Thank you kindly for the replies. Now to try and find one... Lol

 

Yes plug and play, you need grey connector

 

The PPP ecu for a v5 is an SP STI 1001056110 A18-000 DIX and has a dark coloured 4 plug socket and is plug and play on an RB5 but not sure about a uk v5.

 

^^ I can confirm that it is pnp on a uk v5. I fitted mine 10k trouble free miles ago. It's worth pointing out that it has 3 sockets, as there are 3 plugs on the loom. One of the "sockets" on the Prodrive ecu is a blank with no pins.

 

There is a v5 PPP ecu on ebay now but ouch the price.
