Default ecu help

well i recently posted on here that i had boosting problems and i got the engine mapper to have a look and the ecu / boost is shagged !
so im looking to get a simtek fitted !!!!

but just for the time being i want to buy another standard ecu just to at least be able to drive it with boost while saving !!!

i took all the details from the ecu

75
2261 / ae360
ai8-000 d60
7821

its 3 plug so do i need to match this up with another ecu or do i need just a 3 plug one ?????
seen one on ebay its the same sort but from an type r !

please help if u can

kindest

regards

Makes no difference what model car you have be it a type r/ra or just an sti, the J2 ECU is for the MY99 Sti's which were made from 9/98 - 8/99 and in regards to the 4 ports one is a blank.
