Rough prices for straight engine swap or engine rebuild

[Sammy]

You cant just swap ecu's as the ecu is coded to the dash.

Use your current ecu and get it mapped for the K04 and S3 injectors.

So are you saying change the map sensor to the S3 one with my current ecu or leaving both my ecu and map sensor as is and getting it mapped?

So using the origanal gti ecu will work fine, its just the map sensor wont work, which means changing it over for your own engine.
Anything else?

Just the map sensor.  The S3 map reads differently to the stock one.

Depends on the mapper as the S3 map sensor can be mapped to work with the stock ecu.  Easier to just use the stock map sensor and stock ecu.

Somewhere someone had mentioned about boosting, they couldnt boost above 21psi.

would there be a problem with this or with the correct tuner could this problem be solved?

you can also keep your ecu.    but u limit ur boost, 21psi. (what i run)

if you do change your ecu,  change your map sensor also

21 psi = approx. 1.5 bar is this correct ^^^^

What happens when the s3 map sensor is mapped in to the GTI Ecu?

Hi guys looking for help on this matter. My Axx engine has packed it in so tryin to source an Axx engine is hard
