Careful. EcuTek do engine remapping, ECU's and whatever. Ecotek make a gadget that is supposed to increase your fuel economy!

If you have an MY99 car (AE800/801/802 ECU), you have a three plug setup.

If the Applied Model code starts GC8G, you have an MY00. MY99's are GC8F

Thus, it should have had an AE802 ECU to start with, but either way, it's a "three plug" setup.
