Early RST ECUs (S1, early S2) aren't equipped with knock sensors and are interchangable. Later ones are equipped with a knock sensor and are not interchangeable with the early type.

Blue-Red-Blue = S1
Blue-Red-White = Early S2
Blue-Red-Black = S2 equipped with knock sensor, green sensor mounted on RH of inlet is the knock sensor
Hearts & Diamonds = 90 Spec S2s

As for BBR, I was going to pick one up some time ago but was told by a friend they weren't up to much scratch. Bear in mind that you will require a set up as simply bolting on a chipped ECU to an otherwise standard car could lead to disaster. Personally I wouldn't bother getting a 2nd hand unit and would look into getting a proper set up from a reputable tuner.

I am aware for the set up. I assume that the bbr chip does the same thing as the other chips, removing
the boost limiter are am I wrong?
