I thought with changing the ECU you have to change the transponder and the chips?

You do, but an X16XE will run on an X14XE ECU, it's just not ideal.

You don't need the transponder with an aftermarket ECU, the immobiliser is in the ECU, so if you use something different, you don't need the stuff for the immobiliser
