My plan was to get the gearbox sorted first then eventually single and ecu.. Do you know if you can run a built autobox on just regular stock ecu/stock tt set up entirely?

Of course you can, and that's exactly what you want to do when you do go single and aftermarket ECU. Just make sure you get an ECU that still allows you to retain the stock ECU to control just the gearbox  That's exactly what I have done, and Dan has done by the sounds of it.

cool ok - the ATF one threw me off as it says if you're running the AEM ecu it can c*ck it up unless they amend the tuning file. Wondered if these boxes had to have some sort of mapping with them to work correctly

Yes stock ecu will control a built gearbox just the same as a stock box. 
 

as with all a340 gearboxes. Try not to use wide open throttle in overdrive. And do not wheel spin from 1st into 2nd. Eg a burnout changing into 2nd gear. This is very likely to roll the 2nd gear sprag 

if you treat the gearbox right. It will last very well. also change the fluid in the sump as often as possible if you are giving it a hard time. 

Really good advice, and also change the strainer.
