you'll get alot more benefits with an aftermarket ecu, wont get the full potential without it.

i run a vf28 with stock ecu n just a safc, but had the vf28 in b4 the safc. I still noticed a big difference over the td04, but yeah, youll get alot more out of it with a aftermarket computer.

they aren't hard to install if you do it yourself. I got someone to do it the first time but then i did it myself the second time. Might as well save some money. I installed vf35 on my 95 wrx and ran ok without tune or anything but i didn't thrash it cause was a bit worried about it not getting enough fuel early
