Default Buying an extra ECU / black box questions...

Ok, so now that I'm thoroughly discouraged from getting a Unichip, my only option is TS or AAM reflash (can't get emanage, can't hack the wiring harness under warranty) I want to know if I can purchase a seperate ECU from a wrecked 5AT and plug it into my harness...and also, is the black box built into the ECU? I want to know, incase anything happens at the track, I will swap the stock ECU back in and return my car to stock before I bring it in...

You do not need to cut the ECU wiring harness. Get a jumper (that you can spice into):


.
But you might read this thread first:https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/122214-how-the-ecu-works-and-what-needs-to-be-overcome-for-na-gains.html

Where can I find one of these? If that jumper is easily availible, I have no problem buying eManage and E01

edit: I read Sentry's thread..but I need something to adjust my AF maps once I throw intake/spacer/headers/high flows/pulley on right?

I think the ecu's are vin coded. I think you would need to get a dealership to program your vin into the ecu. There was another thread about this very thing.
