MY98 ECU cannot be remapped as far as I know.

Cheapest way id say is to find a second hand apexi ecu and have that mapped but your still talking about £350 for the ecu (£100 extra for the hand controller if required) plus mapping time.

MY98 standard ECU can be remapped by the addition of a daughterboard to the ECU.

Il just get another and sell this in six months my current ecu should adapt to this decat it runs sweet anoth

Hi again
Car seems to be running rich can smell the petrol probly the decat
Powerstation want big bucks to add a daughter board and as I said on a budget

If so can I get a used rb5 or wrk uk 99-00 standard ecu get that mapped think their 3 plug to
Sox if I'm bein stupid different models years etc

Your ecu will be a 3 plug. 99 - 00 are 4 plug. smelling petrol when starting from cold is pretty normal no so when warm tho. possible lambda sensor problem maybe? Connect black plugs under dash to check for fault codes. Check out the air filter too. could be clogged...

Andy Stevens

If yours is pre sept 98 then it will be a 3 plug Ecu and not interchangeable with 99/00 ECUs.

It depends on your budget I suppose, but mapping the 98 isn't big bucks. The ESL board is 295GBP+VAT for the hardware.

I have had oil change new plugs oil filter air filter
Would the lambs not throw a check engine?
Also are these plugs under steering colum I have the thread saved how to read them

Where is the lambs sensor on these?

The connectors are under the dash, above the pedals, might be tucked away if never used before, black and green. lambda is in the downpipe, behind the turbo. 3 wires sticking out of it. when dead it will throw a cel and code but if dying then maybe not. ive been driving around with mine broken and only got a cel on at motorway speed after about 20mins.

S reg 98uk should have an 8s ecu.

wesleeburns-2009

Just check the ecu 8s 3 plug but I got a puddle in footwell don't know where that's leaking but just put a load of silicone in there

And the lamba I thought that was the sensor
But could it just be down to the decat exhaust apparently its got a scooby sport full decat system

The puddle in the footwell is usually the heater matrix leaking, beatch of a job to change....
