Default ECU swap question

Hi guys

does anyone know if itz possible to swap ECUs for B6 A4 1.8T?

I have 2004 A4 APR 1+ and I want stock ones...

If I find any 2004 a4 1.8t stock ECU, is it just plug and play?

for you, if im not mistaken it wont matter for your purpose. Your going to be reflashing the whole thing for the BT set up. so jsut get a 2004 a4 ecu and you should be fine.

It wont work this way ! First of all, there are a **** load of different ECU's for the 1.8T out there.
Different Bosch numbers, different software.
...and second, you have to transfer your immobilizer data to the new ECU.

I really don't understand what your goal is.
