Default sti ecu into wrx ?

would you be able to replace a 95 wrx ecu with an sti ecu ? and would it damage the engine as the sti is much stronger and revs higher ?

You could do it, but without supporting mods (lots of) your going to be asking for trouble.

STi 2 6K ECU can go into a 95 wRX as it's very similar with slightly more boost.
It is also the same Map as prodrive fitted into UK Spec cars.

I wouldn't fit an STi 1 (SA ECU), STi 1 RA (SB ECU) though as these are v.lean.
