Re: ECU for ej25
What exactly are you asking for mate?
The ecu's that most folks use with their conversions are the ecu that
came with their engine. I'm not aware of anyone who has modified the

Re: TDI Starter Swap Report
Terry: My recommendation - as per my writeup, is that the tdi starter

Re: 2002 rs impresa ej25 prep install quesitons
