I still have my Digifant ECU for the 2.1L Vanagon for sale. It is made in 1995. It is the 022D version of the Bosch ECU. A company in Australia makes a chip that ONLY fits the 022D version of the ECU. The chip is around $250 (I did a list purchase a while back and got the price under @$200 for 21 buyers. Some got the chip alone, others got ratio rockers. I paid $400 for the ECU a year ago. The PO bought it and had only used it for a few months. I have used it for @7 months. I have since put in a 1998 ECU (I got the ECU when I help do a top end rebuild and install a WBX engine for a friend, so there is nothing wrong with the 1995 ECU). The 022D version of ECU seems to have come out in 90~91 (?), so it more valuable than a 022 ECU because it is the only one that can take the Aussie Power chip, Plus the ECU has been in service for less than a year. The chip adds 10% power min and keeps the engine running cooler and makes the WBX engine run better.
A new ECU costs almost $600 While a Rebuilt costs $200. The 1995 ECU has only been in service under year. This ECU is better than a rebuilt ECU and is almost like a new ECU because you are not getting a 10+ year old ECU, PLUS the ECU has updated circuity that a rebuild ECU would not have. Asking price is $300. I am located in Wake Forest, NC.
