How much does a replacement or reprogrammed ‘plug and play’ ECU / ECM cost?


Note: A high quality vin matched replacement ECU / ECU is typically $600 less than dealer installed parts.

Riced Cars Before They Left the Factory

Here’s a list of vehicles that got canned by the manufacturer after barely leaving the assembly line. The Jeep Rally Mopar was introduced in 2007. It was actually an attractive looking car. The Perodua MYVI SXI Sport put out 86 HP! No mystery there. The Alfa Romeo 156 with a big wing in the back irritated the world. Suzuki Swift RS was an attempt to reinvent style. It didn’t! The Proton Wira Special Edition had a horrendous spoiler. Pugeot 107 GT was loved by a few but didn’t have a successor. Dodge Stratus R/7 also sported a hideous spoiler. Toyota Celica GT never owned performance, so why the spoiler?

These cars all had questionable additions that couldn’t be explained due to a lack of power. It makes you seriously wonder what the manufacturer was thinking all through the design and production process.
