in theory you could just swap it, but it depends on what that ecu was remapped to , if it's remapped for fast cams or etc, n u haven't got all that, then it wont give you that much more performance, but it should still increase, if its not to expensive i would personally buy it :)

Remapped ecu is no good to you unless its mapped to the same modifications you have,

What modifications have you got?
