chasing stock ECU and selling APR flashed one

[h100vw]

Is it possible to swap out ECU's in these cars? Having both a stock & APR tuned car its always been at the back of my mind.

Id imagine there's a bit of tinkering involved with a VAG com to get the things to start with new key codes..

You could read the Immo data and flash it into opposite ECUs. I find it easier to swap the immo chips over, as a permanent solution.

No takers then? I'm still keen if anyone is after a good tune at bargain prices.

I'm in Brisbane, but im sure we could arrange things via mail / courier for anyone out of state.

Shoot me a pm if interested

It's all doable in a couple of days.

I will have a stock ecu looking for a tune soon. Don't think I will go past stage 1 however.

Still available if your willing to swap and send some dosh my way. The stage thing seems slightly different with APR, the only thing they offer the 9N polo as a "stage 2" enhancement is their uprated diverter valve. Then stage 3 is a bolt on K04. I'm pretty sure when my car was re-flashed for the downpipe it would have been just to allow the software to see a wider range of gas flows through the exhaust without throwing a CEL. I think the improved performance would have been more down to the physical hardware in place than adjustment of the ECU. Technically I think I'm still be classed as stage 1 according to APR. You could probably use that ECU without the downpipe. But having said all that, I could be completely wrong.

It does make a huge difference to stock though, so I highly recommend the tune however you go about it

Are the immobilser chips a straightforward swap too? Thanks

I am interested in swapping with Superchimps (OP) but have admittedly never done so.

They are with the right technique. I am happy to do it. Just need both ECUs here in QLD. I can do it in about 15 minutes.

Hello Gavin,

I am keen, thanks. Some logistics to work out with OP and myself.

Possible to get a group chat going via email say to make sure all is well before we execute?

Thanks

Jack has my number, just let me know when and where. I have a spare ecu in Sydney with no immo in if you can't be without your car. I can fix you up with that if you need it.
