    I'm going to try spare key and spare reader ring wen I get chance, if that fails I'll buy an unlocked ECU and use that instead and saves a lot of fucking about lol

    immobilised. Need an unlocked ECU.

    if someone is breaking a furio, whilst its running, disconnect the immobiliser and and it will unlock the ECU, if not, take your ecu to blue hawk (google search) and they will unlock it for £80. Then just remove the immobiliser box all together.
    Its a black box underneath the dash, behind the glove box.
