doesn't appear to be part of the loom. Probably had a fuel cut defender of some other device hooked in at some point.

Oh! and yes you can 'rework' this ECU in several ways...see my website PolarPerformance ....

would it be best to remove it completly incase it shorts something out as it is still attached to the loom?
i was thinking of getting an apexi, can you tune these?
cheers

look up what pins it was connected too

Either fuel cut defender as said, or speed delimiter.. possibly looks to be connected to B95 11..(speedo) but difficult to tell for sure from picture.
