Gloyale Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 passengers side carpet under the feet. ???????? I believe it is to the left of the steering column, tucked up high in the dash. Mounted horizontally. The TCU will be blocking it, mounted vertically, if it's an automatic. Gary, you may be thinking impreza or.....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The newer cars 95+ have the ECU in the passenger footwell area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themoneypit Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 yeah i found it... under passenger side carpet.. it tried to search, but "ECU" is too short for the search requirements... like an idiot, i forgot to get the one out of the 2.2l donor car b4 i scrapped it. i went there today, they said they already crushed it and sent it out on a truck so, using the stock computer in my 97 OBW for this 2.2l w/o egr swap, can i still ground out the wire that controls the egr and avoid a CEL gary?? the OBW is a 5spd AWD car. let me know please. my buddy rushed me thru stripping it and getting rid of it since it was at his house.. i dont blame him, prob shouldnt have been pounding down beers while doing it, idve remembered then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 i doubt there's a difference between ECU's that would hinder your goals - but if there is it shouldn't be hard to get a different one. it's definitely going to run and drive just fine so it's not going to hold that up, then you can tweak with it later.
