    01-M Box
    01.5-CH Box
    (I think that is how it goes)

    So, how you like the extra boost? What you spike at? Any issues thus far?

    Re: Which ECU does my car have?

    Plug it into your car
    hook up your vagcom
    enter the engine #1 controler
    I think there is a soft code button
    record the value that is in there, and replace with what is stated above.

    see if it works
