    ECU 153 to 173

    Situation:
    Car - '88 325iX
    ECU - ends with 153

    Ok I am pretty sure this is right but better safe than sorry.

    I can just unplug one then swap in the other and drive away right?

    If I did it, so can you. :up: Toss in a Mark D and some 19lbers while you're at it.

        Nope, it's a straight swap (I was surprised too). My car idles better and screams harder to a higher fuel cut all in one upgrade. Do it.

              Just the ECU not the MarkD or #19

                I told you all you had to do was unplug it and plug in 173 in. I do have to 173 for you, I think I may have the 19lbers for you as well. I have to check and make sure.
