The one made for the engine I think its PM7? Or PM8? Either way, the one for the DOHC ZC is the best if your engine is stock with bolt ons.

well i have pm6 from 89 si 91 si ecu pr4 and pg7 and i bought a pm7 with my zc i tried them all and i would have to say the pm7 is the best one.the pr4 seem to have low rev limter,pg7 made it stick like fumes,pm6 ran it fine but not good kinda chuged.but im wonder if i use the pm6 could i use 87 octane not 93 like with pm7.i tired 87 with pm7 it ran and chuged so bad i had to drain the tank and fill it up with fresh 93.so IMO i wouls say get pm7 DOHC ZC ecu.u wont be sorry.btw i paid 100 for my zc ecu.not really all that much money.

I have a legit ZC PM7 ZC DOHC ECU, i kept it from my old ZC swap i got a while back for my other hatch before i sold it. It's the only thing i kept from the swap besides the dizzy i already sold, but the PM7 ecu is in my stock beater hatch right now, 89 si with a d15b1, lol...

It runs alright, it "seemed" a little better over all for power, but other then that it's fine.

If I could find one on ebay then I would have bought it. No one in the states sold one back when I was looking. Hmotors was backed up 2 months, and password was just sold clean out (and they still listed it as available on their site )

The pm7 that my friend let me try out was incredible. It pulled so hard in the highest RPMs compared to my pm6. It hiccuped a little at like 1.5k-2k rpm tho.

I finally got a 90 PM6 that I am going to be chipping soon.

why dont u just chip the pm6 with the zc maps??? and if u ever wanted to boost later on u can always burn new program and slap it in.

Like i said IMO, it feels overall better for the motor through the whole rpm band a little but...i usually get skeptical anytime i past 6500rpm on a d15b1. I have takin it higher then that on other motors but on the d15b1 even though my pm7 has a supposed redline of 7500 warmed up i don't take it that high, lol. When you take it that high on a D series anyways, it doesn't really have much more pull anyways, it just feels like your gonna blow your hunk of junk beater engine up before you manage to buy a B series swap, lol...but hey thats me.
