Is it safe to assume that, at the least, all of these ecu's as grouped by the engine code would be physically compatible with each other?   For instance, an 03' gti with a HS in it now.  Would I be able to take anything from the AWP list below and flash it with HN software?

2002+ Golf/Jetta: AWP
06A 906 032 HS
06A 906 032 LP
06A 906 032 NK
06A 906 032 SK
06A 906 032 RN (notes - 6spd manual)
06A 906 032 SM (notes - 6spd manual)
06A 906 032 LQ (notes - 5spd auto)
06A 906 032 NL (notes - 5spd auto)
06A 906 032 SL (notes - 5spd auto)

Is there a list like this available any place that I am just not finding?  It'd be nice to have something to refer to for what ecu is physically compatible with what software.

Yes, makes that makes sense.  Just looking for a spare ecu for a GTI which had a HS. I will flash HS software onto whatever ecu I get.  It's just nice to know that you have the option of finding an HS, LP, NK, SK, RM, SM, LQ, NL and SL box to work with.

i look for autos, they are less expensive, I guess its assumed that autos are only for autos. if you flash a manual file to a auto it changes the coding to manual. I have found autos on ebay for $40.

Old thread up...

What does EPK stand for?

Should this be cross flashable?

I think if you want to be sure, you should look at BOSCH hardware number. If they are the same, then you can cross use the ECUs.
