yup just like stray says it has to be a pwo pr a pr3. It the ecu does not say any of these 2 and your motor is bd0 then your motor will not be running right. If your interested in a ecu i have a Pr3 for sale

You are using the wrong computer or it is damaged just get the pr3 thats your best bet. Or get your self a jumper and try a p28.

you'll hear it...probably wont feel ****.

i'm just hoping, since you got the auto ecu, you didnt get the auto b16. the cams in an auto b16 suck complete sack.

good luck
