Its not in the computer that makes power. The ecu you have is designed for your engine and it works to its nearly full potential. Replacing a computer out of a different car will cause the car to run either rich or lean, may bog and it will be slow.

Only thing you can do is get your ecu socketed and get somebody who can dyno tune to take care of it. The power gains will be very minimal and i mean 1-3hp but the benefit is that it becomes slightly more responsive.

Nop, I'm sure you could find somebody, but the two I mentioned are very reputable and really know what they are doing.
