By ECU do you mean the ECM engine control module? I believe that's about the only part that can't be swapped on these cars.

Is the doner car manual or auto?

Cos the two ecus are different and few ex plods are auto

You can get the mapped ecu coded to your car by a company called Shark performance up North somewhere,they used to charge £80ish,and will do it by post if needed
