I came across a decent deal on a 1g socketed ECMlink... that is all that is included... how and what do I need to install on my tsi?
 
Lol ok I may of asked this wrong.... what do I need to tune it? Software plugs etc? It is actually on a 1990. Why would it not work?
 
Because you need to swap pins on the harness of its a 90. I've owned like 4 90 cars. They are different and weird. iirc it's pin 5 and 19 otherwise your tach won't work and it won't run correct. You need to verify the year of the ecu by running the number on it. Then...what tune is on said ecu? Did the car have a hx40 and speed density? Was it stock? Pte6265 and giant cams? Depends upon the tune currently saved of your car will even start. Many things to consider.
 
I believe its actually pins 6 and 14 that need to be swapped. All you need to log/tune is the obd cable and cd with software to download on laptop. Then change settings to the maf and injectors you have. Theres lots of threads on here and the ecmlink forums to help understand link.

So do you just have an eprom ecu, or do you have one with an ecmlink setup in it, but no cable?

This is what I am buying... he said it would work for my 1990.. so I am guessing even if its set up different I can download the software and buy a cable and set it up for how I need?
