[Mk2] [Turbo] Retrofitting abs??

Post by tubbychat3 »

Has anyone done this before..

I have all the parts on a donor car.. The abs hubs are already on the car from turbo upgrade.

I have the module on my bench and the wiring in situ on donor. is the a ecu for it hiding somewhere. does the system work independently to the main engine ecu?

rev1 abs is a pretty basic system iirc, rev3 and onwards has a more advanced system. But even then it's still pretty rubbish compared to a modern car.
