How much would it cost for a new ecu? I've tried looking online for ecu manufacturers but can't find any in qld or nsw.

Alternatively, can anybody recommend any 4-cylinder fwd high perfomance engines which would slot into the engine bay of my 97 astina with minimal fuss?

Cheers, all

Having a cutom-built performance engine would already be costing you $5000 in parts and not counting labour. If your doing it yourself you will still need all machinery etc. Not saying not to do it, if you love your NA beasts then go ahead. I'm nearly reaching the end of rebuilding my motor so you might find some useful info in my worklog on AGT.
