As the title suggests, if I trade my car in I will only get trade value. So I was wondering if I could remove my ecu 19t and awd downpipe and swap it with somebody of the same year and car??

Do a swap with somebody for cash and there parts to put my car back to original.

Obviously if the dealer is gonna take the piss I will just sell it private, but it depends on what hes offering I suppose.

I suppose its always on the car somewhere down the line, to cover trade ins etc

Anyway....will it work?

If the ECU numbers (ie the Bosch 0261 number) are the same it should work fine.
