Sti will have the higher rev limiter in place, so you'll be revving the nuts off your motor mate and eventually.........BANG.

If it's a version 2 STi ECU, then it'll be 275ps as well.

I think I sent you a PM the other day. Ordering some ESL ECU's which will boost to 1.1bar in the next day or to. They'll give a much improved throttle response and boost will be higher. Let me know ASAP mate.

Nick.

Never heard of an SC for a Pre96 car. SA and SB, but not SC

This is old I know; but a 1996 260PS ECU would be a Z4. STI V2 'Wagons used the Z4 and the TD05 producing 260PS.
