they can pass emissions if properly configured. they can perform exactly like the original ECU if tuned well, if a tiny bit better.

they don't do OBD2 tests in my country though, only the pipe emissions test, so im not sure about that. saving a working original just for these tests is an option.

Hopefully we'll be able to find a working one soon :( our emissions here are exclusively OBD2 based for anything 1996 or newer. I'll probably do what some other folks have recommended and try to "remanufacture" one myself.

EDIT: no idea why my client decided to post my comment twice.

i hope you find it. if its a common problem like "hey its a specific component or set of components that always blows out on these" you are probably in luck.
