None that I'm aware of. The only ECU "upgrade" I would recommend is swapping to the MP3 ECU. Gives ya an extra 10 or so ponies and is a direct swap. Only for manual transmission though.

Is this for the protege5? Do you swap the p5 ECU with the ECU of a mp3, and it is a direct swap?

As far as I know it's a direct swap. You need to run premium fuel though.

LOL, the point of running the MP3 ECU is to have slightly better acceleration in your NA protege without using a standalone.
