Finish the job
Link VR4X G4X Plug-In ECU for the Mitsubishi Galant VR-4. It drops into the factory ECU location on the original mounts, loom and connectors, so there is no rewiring and no adapter harness. Factory functionality is retained and a start-up map is loaded, so the car runs from the moment it is in.
Underneath it is the full G4X platform: dual CAN bus, flex fuel, closed-loop boost and lambda, VVT control, CAN keypad support, a built-in trigger oscilloscope and 512MB of onboard logging, plus the motorsport set, launch control, anti-lag, traction control, nitrous, gear shift and paddle shift.
E-Throttle Upgrade
This ECU can be supplied with the factory E-Throttle Upgrade applied. The board is modified by Link at their Global HQ when the order is placed, which enables drive-by-wire control that the standard ECU cannot run.
- Choose With E-Throttle Upgrade above to have it done.
- Adds roughly three weeks to the normal lead time, as the ECU is modified to order. Longer again during Link sale periods.
- The upgrade can only be applied to a new ECU at time of purchase. An ECU you already own has to go through Link's technical support instead, so it cannot be added later.
- Drive-by-wire also needs the hardware: an accelerator pedal module and an electronic throttle body. Both are listed separately.

Before you order
- Manual transmissions only.
- Onboard MAP sensor. New ECUs are fitted with a 7 bar absolute sensor, good for 6 bar (about 87 psi) of boost. Earlier boards used a 4 bar absolute sensor, good for 3 bar (about 44 psi). The 7 bar version carries a sticker on the bottom board. An external MAP sensor can also be wired in through the expansion connector.
- In the box: the ECU, USB tuning cable, anti-static strap and Link's plug-in manual card. No separate tuning cable is needed.
- Knock control is not available on this ECU.
- Check your factory ECU connector matches the header shown in the photos.
