Default immobiliser probs on mk6 escort

the 1.6 engine in my escort went so i fitted a 1.8 lump.

i have the chipped key and ECU for the 1.8 as well, but when i changed over the ECU and chip the car wouldnt start (im guessing due to immobiliser probs).

is there any other part that i need to take from the 1.8?
