haha, yes the c20xe ecu is rather large! this one is teeny! im tempted to mount it where the mfd is? make a little panel to blank it out with the little port sticking out to make it easy to plug into?!

Whatever turns you on I personally would try keep it hidden. Or maybe removable so that you could really immobilise the car

it would be inside the mfd housing so would be well hidden, you would only see the seriel port and some leds if you looked right in at it.... soundsl ike hard work, i may leave it.
