[s-cars] Motronic ECU repairer?

[Mark Strangways]

humm, that makes sense when you said you replaced it with yours...
I needs to read better :-)

But, is there a difference in the box ? The chips can be copied from your 
3B.

I am sure there are differences, but could it be used ??? Humm.

Thanks Mark, but I think Hap's is probably an AAN, while my friend has a 3B.

However I wouldn't mind doing the AAN swap onto one of my cars, to go
to direct ignition.  I didn't notice Haps ECU posted in the ads I saw.
 Morbid curiosity makes me wonder the price.  Got a link anyone (such
as Hap if you are reading), or just know the price Hap wants ?

So far we are aware of one 3B ECU that he could get.  That is, unless
I actually go AAN-ize my 200q20v or other 3B motor and my ECU can go
to my friend.

I also have an update.  I just got a call from my friend who left the
emissions station.  He passed with my ECU.  Sweet.

Cheers,

Ken
