Hey guys
So i'm buying a Mk3 Gti 2.0 8V.
The issue is that it needs a loom and ECU.
I have an Mp9 loom from my previous car with a ECU for a 1.4i
My question is.. can this ECU be used and just remapped?
Or do i have to get an ECU sepcifically for the 2.0 8V

Get your MP9 ECU detranspondered and unlocked for 2L.

Re: Mk3 GTi Computer box
Is the Mk3 GTI you are buying originally MP9 or Digifant?

Re: Mk3 GTi Computer box
Just go after market and all is solved ! Better option in my opinion.
I feel there is a power benefit from using aftermarket fuel ignition systems. In the long run you will need all the extra power you can get, mk3's have alot more weight .
And when/if do decide to modify you won't be limited ur ecu limits and one less thing to pay for later
