I wentt down the local scrappy and they offerd me this engine for 1.4k with gearbox but with no loom or ecu.
The engine was from a Golf R20
can i use my BWA loom?

I can't see why not, I have an BWJ (Cupra engine) with AXX loom and AXX ECU. :happy2:

You still running the GTI map sensor then? 1.5Bar limit? as when i put the S3 map sensor in i just get fault codes.

I have the Cupra/S3 sensor but not fitted yet, but i assume it won't work unless i find a Golf R ECU or ED30 ECU for my car :sad1:

s3 ecu should be fine mate

You can use the old loom fine. The engine is physically the same.
Just use the old map sensor. The s3 map sensor may need scaling to get it to work properly.
I can get 21mm wrist pinned forged rods for the s3/ed30 engine now too.

The CDL has the 21mm wrist pins all ready does it not?
