Help?? Lol

Hi. Basically I have brought a quicksilver cheap with a engine that has died.
I'm sticking my 16v engine into it I have the unlocked ecu for new engine but I'm just wondering do I need the engine to be running to unplug the little black box on my car? As the car doesn't run. Or can I simply just unplug it do away with it and then my new unlocked ecu work fine. ? Any help would be great. Cheers

If u have a unlocked ecu dissconect the black box because if you try to start with it connected it will lock it. Take it out a put it with the quicksilver ecu, the car has to be running to disconnect immobliser to unlock it.

That's the problem the quicksilver does not run. Can I not just disconnect it with out engine running

I don't need to unlock the quicksilver ecu. I have s unlocked gti ecu already so can I just unplug the immobiliser box do away with it an the when my unlocked gti ecu goes on will it start ok
