Can't be mapped without use of an extra chip or daughterboard.
It is however the best ecu for early wrxs as standard.

STI2 ran the same size injectors and turbo,rev limit is the same and the change in power/boost is very small so i doubt any harm will be done.

6k and z4 ecu is mapped to run a td05 so you i would think you need to replace the turbo (you can pick them up 2nd hand for about £100ish)
As for physically fitting then yes it will go straight in.

6k is rated at about 275ps i think.
Only UK cars need cats from Aug 1992,early imports seem to get away with decatting (mine has for about 4 years)
