Scroll down to "ECU upgrade"

This wouldn't do anything for you. Dont waste you money.

Hahaha! I read this when it was first posted a few hours ago and assumed it was in Off Topic. I thought you were talking about an actual personal computer. Glad I didnt reply to it. I was going to say CPUs are dirt cheap nowadays and so are motherboards. Swap it all out for a couple hundred bucks

I don't think the ECU upgrades really do much good unless you have seriously modified the engine. Then it would probably be a good idea to go with an ECU upgrade that was designed to match the mods.
Bigger pistons and taller cams require a different fuel curve and dinking around with the air flow meter to try and trick the ECU doesn't work very well in my experience.
