No, BCM works either way.
Or do you mean the ECU? Cheers BenJ

Don't forget to do the rear welsh plug while you have access to it.
And there is no such thing as a cheap turbo kit. If there was such a thing that was reliable and driveable, we would all have one already. Troyman has dropped at least 10k into his cheap turbo kit. Cheers BenJ
