3b is actually a 220ps ecu for the td04. you need to check what turbo is now fitted.
td04 or td05.

that 3b ecu is no good then, you need one of these.
U8, 2C, W6, W9 - 1993/1994 WRX - 11.47psi (240 ps)
Z4 - 1995/1996 WRX - 12.78psi (260ps)

your car will feel much quicker when you get rid of the 3b

3B - 10psi, dropping to 6.8psi

I'm actually selling my Z4 ecu on eBay now. Don't know if your interested but here's the link;

It was removed from my96 JDM WRX which was the 260ps version running a TD05 turbo (the car was running fine - just gone to a Simtek) Gareth

Or there's the "ultra rare" MY96 STi v.2 "6K" one which is 275PS (271bhp).
