i would throw it away but the dumbass that had the car before me deleted the harness to the n75 valve so im stuck with this without a choice.. i bought the car for 200 without an ecu and had to start over. has a nice borla exhaust and apr dv and intake 550cc injectors and r8 coils, but stock other than a bunch of deletes, im not in a possition where i can drop the money for a tune and want to do this myself or with help im cluless on what to do. car has 6speed manual and all that, i bought it at an auction has 109,963 miles but someone stole the ecu that i know had ecs tune becase i found the info in car where it was done. just trying to have a nice drivable fast little car.

Sorry, you're screwed. Pay to play. There is zero good possible outcomes here w/o a n75.

Not only that, but these cars are not cheap to maintain.

Flip the car and get something else.

so i should get rid of my car all because someone deleated the n75 valve hmmmm, id rather replace the entire wiring harness then to sell the car,too much done to throw away, cars is in amazing shape with low miles. i dont mind paying if i have too, but isnt this site here for tuning? and my question was for someone to help guide me in tuning my ecu, ill figure out the wiring harness does suck that it was cut close to the loom and i have to dissasemble the harness to fix the issue, im just not computer savy and need a hand. so if the two peoples that have replied answer is to flip the car because im not in a position to drop a bunch of cash at the moment or would rather tune myself with help than wtf is the point of this site or discusion board?? this isnt my first car but is my first 1.8t. ive built 3 mk2 gti vrt big turbos on stand alone and bought this car because what has been done that i wouldnt have to spend a shit ton of cash to do myself. so that being said anyone want to help me tune my ecu or nah?
