The AEBS IM is single-stage, so p28 has everything you need (and is cheaper). You could keep your p72 or sell it and buy a p28 for a little profit.

does it matter that the p28 is built to supply for a 1.6L and the P72 is built to supply for a 1.8L? I would think that the ecu closest to his current motor would work better

An untuned p28 would be a bad idea. I was assuming he would tune. If not, p72 is the better of the alternatives, but a tune is practically necessary with those mods.

thats what i was thinking, if he's going to use an ecu for tuning, either one will work fine, but if he's going to run a stock ecu on that set up (which wouldnt be recommended) might as well keep the gsr ecu since its closer to what he needs

if you plan on chipping it go with he p28. Its easier to find one of those than a 94-95 gsr one anyway
