shouldnt come on bud.got full decat on mine and never had any probs.the 97-98 uk cars seem to handle mods easily with no probs like the newer ones that have to be re-mapped after any changes.

I've got a 99 uk wagon,full decat,+ afterburner centre section ,and backbox ,and never seen a ecl come on since parts were fitted,no need to do reset the ecu either as it will automatically alter itself for the changes.
