Item number: 150094286387 Ebay item number, is this thing worth the money??? ANYONE?????????????????

I would say not.

1) you have to fit it
2) it's not been stored in an ESD environment (therefore may not work)
3) unless you have the PIN, and cruise control you won't get it out of stock mode

If its is runnning in stock mode all the time obviously it is going to be of no benifit wat-so-ever? oh dear oh dear..

this man seems to think i can just get it connected up and it will work the best??

take his word for it then.... but the default mode for APR EMCS was 'stock'

it depends what programs are on the ecu, if its just a map, and thats it, then yes you can change it, all you will need to do is change the immob code to work with your car,
but if he has had additional programs added or required a cruise stalk to operate/switch between maps then dont bother, wont work
