Fs: 02 Wrx 5mt Ecu

$500 shipped.

Out of 2002 WRX 4-door 5MT.

Not flashed. Stock.

Used for the first 5,000 miles. Then, after the TECIII went it, it was just sitting on my tool box.

Hello, I am interested in your ECU but have a question. How do I know that it will work in my car? The dealer says that there is a vin split or something and that it all goes by the VIN #. Are they full of crap? I want to by this ECU so that I may have it re-flashed, will that negate the VIN issues?
Sorry, that was like three questions. Anyway I have cash and live almost local.
Please help

Why so much? You can get a brand new 2002 WRX ECU at the dealer for 495.

According to Cobb Tuning, there are many ECU revisions over the 2002/3 model years. Most of the changes are software related but there were some firmware changes as well. Most of these changes can be corrected by Cobb during an ECU flash with some extra cost ofcourse. They said that if I got a picture or photocopy of the "New" ECU numbers and the same for my"Old" ECU then Cobb should be able to give me some idea of compatibility.
