[urq] w/c turbo swap completed successfully

[Louis-Alain Richard]

Fun, I did replace the vacuum line to the ECU no latter than last Friday.
This was the last line NOT replaced since I got the car and no wonder why:
it's a major PITA to pass it trough the firewall with its grommet. No scars,
but many scratches...

The "fuel condenser" just before the ECU did its job and was partly filled
with thick engine oil: I guess it is normal so I left it like that (I don't
want to introduce some harmful vapors to the pressure transducer). Should I
care and replace it with a new one?

BTW, I did open the ECU box just to check its internals (and to see whether
or not it is stock).
Answer: the box was still a virgin.

Being an urQ archeologist, I did note these numbers:
Hitachi MAC-02
035 905 383B
Stamped serial number: 2422.

I wonder if that 2422 means it's the 2422nd ECU that left the factory?
