Haltech Nexus S3 Plug'n'Play Adaptor Harness Kit - VW/Audi 1.8T AWP
Haltech Nexus S3 Plug'n'Play Adaptor Harness Kit - VW/Audi 1.8T AWP (HT-213325) is a complete Haltech Nexus S3 plug-and-play ECU package for supported 2001–2006 VW/Audi-group 1.8T AWP factory-ECU applications. It combines the Nexus S3 ECU with a vehicle-specific adaptor harness so supported vehicles can retain the factory engine loom while gaining modern Haltech tuning, logging and control capability.
