what do you mean single plug or 3?

its the ECU, older style engines have 1 plug on the ECU, newer have 3 plugs, simples

[ChristopherJames]

[ChristopherJames]

the one i have in the mk1 now is a single plug and the one i wanna put in is a 3 plug

Youll need to take the ecu and loom out of the new engine car and put it into the car you want

[ChristopherJames]
