Should I pick up the phone now and order a JWT ECU?
Do you guys think JWT will come out with a 97+ specific ECU by this summer? Do you think GForce will develop a ECU with a raised limiter any time soon? Should I bother waiting?

Soooo.. As the 3 people who voted on my poll advised me to do. I picked up the phone and ordered the ECU via Cattman. =) I just have to send my ECU out to him tomorrow. 3 weeks is the projected time.

You can use a 95-96 ECU in a 97-98, just not a 99.
JWT will never come out with a 97-99 ECU I guarantee it, there's not enough market to justify the trouble of developing it, and you can use 95-96 in 97-98 anyways, 99 owners are just screwed.

This way you aren't stranded for 5 weeks with no car.

Sigh! I figured. That's okay. I'm going to send a spare ECU so I can still use my car. VI is still sitting in my room because I'm waiting for the EGR gasket from courtesy. Maybe I'll just slap it all in at once.
ECU was 560 dollars from Cattman.

Does anyone know if the 2000-2001 and the 2002-2003 ECUs are similar at all? I'm guessing not because different motors, but if so, maybe 99s could use a 02/03 ECU, if one is ever developed for the Z.
