Y8 ecu on JDM d15B trouble
I swapped a JDM d15B (3 stage) in for my Y7, and I have been using my Y7 ecu since. It runs, but it idles high (I think because of the different injector size) and it also runs rich and with no V-tech. So, I just ordered and put in a Y8 ecu, and it started and up and idled fine, but when trying to give it gas (rev it up) it sputters. like its out of timing or something. Any ideas? BTW, the ecus are p2e-A03 and the Y8 is p2p-A31
THANKS

lol those ecu's suck get a obd2-obd1 converter and get yourself a p28 and chip it and youll have vtec for sure thats what I did im running a dohc zc with mini me i got vtec on my ek with the p28 plus my p2p ecu I had redlined at 6k which is gay the p28 redlines at 7800

I don't have the v-tec solenoid connected right now... I figured that I would have run first without v-tec then hook up the v-tec later. Maybe the ecu needs to see the v-tec so I guess I'll hook it up and see if that fixes the accelerating/reving problem

the reason why it runs llike crap is because the different timing maps of the ECU's. liek said above, just get a conversion harness and obd1 vtec ecu.

please dont hook your vtec solinoid to constant power, thats just retarded.

Re: Y8 ecu on JDM d15B trouble
my motor is obd2, and so is the ecu, where's the problem? I don't know all that much, so excuse me if I don't make complete sense?
