Scoobyecu was the first (or one of the first) ecu mods for early cars iirc but it doesn't look like this
ScoobyECU
so possibly a variation of it perhaps you could ask the previous onwer (if you know who that is)

Only got the car on wednesday, last owner lost the paperwork for everything and isnt sure what it is, as it was done before he got the car.
He said he was told it has been mapped for Uk fuel and a bit more boost but no idea who done it. I spose there is no way of telling without accessing the ecu and seeing hows its been mapped?

Like this:
Look carefully at the picture (okay it's very blurry), the spare socket is being used buy the hoofing great daughter board that has been soldered into it and it sitting on top of the other chips shown in your picture

Like this:
I think rather than mine being a chip its an actual daughter board that allows the car to be live mapped by the sounds of it.

It is a variation of the ScoobyECU.
The code '3B' probably refers to the Wagon ECU as Wagons use a 3B (as well as others).
