ECU question
I have a 93 import WRX, definately an import as theres jap writing everywhere and its too clean to be a 16 year old uk car. I wanted to see if I could use a PP chip so set about checking my ecu, its a 7D and although this does have an empty EPROM slot I've done some checking and this ECU was only supposed to be in Aus/Euro Impreza's.
Just wondered if anyone had encountered this before or had any thoughts?!
I know its possible in 16 years that the ecu has been swapped but other than that??
Cheers
Stu

Oh sorry.
No - it's a step backwrd.
The UK ECUs' maps are designed around the small TD04 turbo, so if it's used in a WRX or STi saloon, then it could be dangerous, as the fuelling may be way to lean for their bigger turbos, for example. Not to mention the UK ECU's low boost setting of about 0.7bar, etc...
