03 ECU in an 00 AP1?

I found an 03 ECU which from what I am reading on here had the most aggressive factory tuning for the AP1's - Is it a plug and play to put into my AP1 or will I have issues with the immobilizer?

Thanks!

Yes. A dealer will need to reprogram it for you.

does this count for all '00-'01 ecu swaps from '02-'03? do you HAVE to go to the dealer?

Yes. In fact, if you want to change the ECU for any reason, a dealer will have to reprogram your keys into the ECU. Or it will not start.
