uhh... your using a SOHC virgin ecu on a DOHC motor? Or were you using a chiped for SOHC LS ecu for a SOHC motor?
either way if its a SOHC virgin ecu i dont think you coul duse it with a DOHC motor. Also your LS was chipped so that might have something to do with it.

no your virgin 92 DX ecu will make your LS motor run like ****, I wouldn't drive it unless you like it to blow up.

Re: (StrikerX)
well p28 is a d16z6, since he says it's a chipped it could possibly be chipped for b16 but I wouldn't trust it anyways.
Also if you are not getting enough fuel, aka running lean your motor will suffer alot of beating.
And chipping the ECU isn't that easy
