Default Remap WRX ECU or get a UK ECU ?

as i have just found out, there are 3 or 4 different ecu`s for the my95 uk turbo, so, does anybody know which one i would need to fit onto a wrx my95 ?

i have found some uk ecus for £100,whereas a remap to regular/super for the wrx ecu is close to £200, if i buy a uk ecu, i would be able to "flip" between the 2 depending on wallet size !!!!

so,anyone know which uk ecu i am looking for, with part numbers or anything i can go on to find out more ?

depending on mods to your car a z4 will give you a good cheap power up and can just plug in and drive 4 yellow plugs same as yours

cheers,im not after power so much, more of a de-power really, as i want to run on normal fuel not optimax at times, like i said above, if i remap my ecu for uk fuel then if i want to go back etc its more money, but if i have a uk ecu and an import ecu, i can swip/swap all day long, as long as i remember to use the rite fuel LOL
so,if i was going through a breaker, what am i saying to them as they all want codes/numbers etc to match the rite ecu to the car.....but i cant go giving my chassis as its an import and will confuse them to ***** !!

A 1995 car doesnt need 100RON fuel; it wasnt available in Japan when the cars were made.... The Z4 mentioned will run well on SUL and this ECU was used by Prodrive in the UK, for their PPP conversions.
