if it is a sohc zc you can use the pm6 (si ecu) and you could actually use the pm6 on the dohc zc as well but it will run like crap so if it is a dohc zc use the pm7.

No. Don't spread bad info.

The PM6 will work just fine for that motor, DOHC or SOHC. I have run one on a DOHC ZC for years with no problems whatsoever. You get better fuel mileage with the PM6 in my experience, although you'll have a lower redline and a hair less power.

Technically the PM7 is the correct ECU for that motor, but the PG7 and PM6 will work absolutely fine.
