na ecu in rt tt

[dfoster101]

wil my NA ecu work in a tt? thinking about picking up a tt for cheap but needs a new ecu will get one if i get the car but tight on cash as it is atm so saving on the ecu for a min would really help ... how much should it cost to rebuild the tt's ecu was quoted at 400 anyways thanks for the help in advance (both the same year cars or least both are 1st gens btw)

No it won't work. Take a look on ebay for twin turbo ECUs.

It will plug in and it will probably start but you do NOT want to do that. It will not run right and will most likely screw something up. Like Blackstealth said find one on ebay or find one from a member. They go for about 250-300.

BTW I'f you can borrow one from a friend you might want to try it out before buying the car unless you are getting a killer deal.

400$ is too much to rebuild...

I would get it to Seth PDQ.

Should be $250 to rebuild. $400 is high.

[Atrosity]

Yeah I would not do it at all....you are asking for trouble. LOL

This has been discussed so many times. Just buy a TT ECU for it. They are going for fairly cheap now.

If cash is so tight that you can't afford an ECU for the car, you might want to remember the money involved in dealing with the entire car.

I would like to know where these cheap 1st gen ECUs are everyone keeps talking about. Decided to put a 94 TT ECU in my 91 VR4. Looks like very few changes are needed to make it work.

thanks for the replies guys pretty much what i thought the case would be on it ... and money is a little tight right now but its anot always tight lol ... but i get hat your saying that if 400 bucks is gonna make or break me that i might not wanna take on owning it cause of cost of ownership on a tt but like i said the moneys not always this way for me, its just that the deal has come around at a time when it is tight and 400 is the differnce between enough gad to get it home or not... but dayumm it looks sweet as hell tho black turboed n beautiful !!
but anyways thanks a again for the replies guys
