Default 8S to 8S ECU whats needed guy's.

Right long story short hot day car on drive windows down, kids playing with hose pipe and my baby girl decides to wash daddies seats. Came out and as you can imagine found it funny at first but the car had about 4" of water in the floor well. Dried it all out best I could, left it 4 days in the heat and came to start it and nothing So I think the ECU is fried.

So what would I need to swap the 8S out for another 8S.
Cars a 1998 v4 Wagon.

ECU
Immobiliser
Transponder ring
Keys
New Key barrel
New locks
Is this what's needed or not, anything else I've missed.

Cheers Lads.

If it starts getting pricey I can supply an ESL ECU for 295+VAT that would make the immobiliser issue go away, and you'd have an aftermarket ECU into the bargain.

Thanks for the offer mate but just can't justify it at the moment, Steve
