Default Too tired to STFA - has anyone run 2001.5 software on 2001 (Hitachi MAF, but no ESP)

I seem to recall all it requires is recoding the ECU. Any other issues ?

Default there are no 2001s without ESP - the only year without ESP is 2000...You can run....

H-box (2001) and M-box (2001.5) software on the same car providing you recode the instrument cluster.

Default I have an 01 (H box) and have dropped in an M box with no issues at all. Worked great....

I have heard others that have had the same luck and others that have had to re-code.

Default Same here. Purchased H box and is running with no issues in an M box car.

Weird thing is it shows up as a M box on VAG.
