Yes, Immobiliser is external to the ECU. I assume you are putting in the AE801 rather than taking out, since that is the better of the two.

AE 801 is the better of the 2 ecu's as quoted above or an AE800 which again will fit. Straight plug and play.

The E3 is a better ecu than the Y7 it runs a more aggressive map so stick with that. The label will be either red or black that says E3. , whereas the Y7 label is green
