I think you need to change the BSi or ECU too, although Lee will be here soon to strike me down if im wrong.

Think your right Rich, changing the ECU and BSI is what I think you need to do as well

I could tell you an answer to this BUT it would be wrong, PM Lee or MR.BSi they will probably know.

If you are swapping the exact same engine, why are you changing the keys?

Then you need to swap the BSI, ECU and IMMO chips over.
Or just get a new key coded to the 2nd car.

I can supply you with the chip and security code for the BSI that will remain in the car, for £15 delivered.
I could also get you a price on the key itself if you wanted me too.
To code the key will be about £60-100 usually depending where you go. I charge £25 which includes a fault code scan as well, as I do it the same way as Peugeot do via the eobd port in order to change the frequency to remove any "lost" keys to stop them starting the car. I travel 20 miles included in that price too, then its 60p a mile one-way after that.

In total I have 4 keys from 3 different gti's I have a firedance gti that im fitting an engine from my gti into. I intend on using the firedance gti then as my car and stripping mine. The 2 keys I have that match can I use them if I swop the ecu, bsi, and transponder. I will just use the fob and get a key cut so I have 2 keys that fit the ignition. If you get me
