Y7 ecu 3 plug
 

Hi I'm looking for a bit of advice I have a std impreza uk 2000 it has a y7 ecu I just would like to know can this ecu be remapped? Or is there a another ecu I can plug in and play? I want to get about 260 bhp would I have to change my to the car to get this?

Cheers Rob

Hello mate.
Try and look for a TEK 1 or TEK 2 ecu which were off he shelf from Ecutek. That's what I did with mine.

You dont say what year your 2000 is but I think the Y7 is from a 1999/2000.

2 or 3 options.

1. Get a Y7 ecu with an ECUtek licence on it for about £100. A mapper will then charge £250 to map it and you'll see 260-280bhp

2. Have a look for an "SP" ecu from a 99/00. This is the prodrive performance pack ecu and will see a nice increase in power to around 260 but may require an sti intercooler and better exhaust.

3. Aftermarket ecu or wait for ESL to be available for 99/00 cars, but these are expensive options (£500+)

Thanks for the advise very helpful ill look into all the option given my car is a 1999 thanks again

OP.

Your current ecu is mappable, you do not need to change your ecu

Use the search button to learn about whats needed before mapping and then speak to a reputable impreza tuner about your mapping options.


Like the old saying goes, a little bit of knowledge is dangerous. There is no reason to change an ecu on any impreza.

or I have a 3 plug AE801 E3 ecu from a 1999 uk2000 ;) make me a offer if intrested im 99% sure it has a license on it as the car had a lot of mods and ran sweet
