From all my reading. I see there are 2 ways to remove the IMMO to allow this ecu to run on its own.
1: Remove the immo in the flash.

http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/showthread.php/334972-EDC17-Immo-remove-work-in-progress/page5Here is tested solution for EDC 17 !
tested on...vw,audi,seat,skoda,citroen,ford,opel,renault, fiat and peugeot.
Immo is in MPC
search for this sequence in whole or just part of it
F00FF480208B022022
Change it to
F00FF4802000008212
done,
immo is off!
so you wont have to buy it elsewhere.
There will be 1-3 times "0FF480208B022022" gets repeated. From what I can tell the 1st and 2nd instance needs to be changed to "00FF4802000008212" but I can not gather if this is EDC17 only or will work with MED17 as well. No clear answers. After downloading numerous edc/med files that have had the immo removed by others i was able to understand the flash method.
2: Remove immo from the ep2/epr.
I was told this is the only true way to remove the immo and the flash method does not work. I have not found what needs to happen.
