Default running problems?d series engine swap.

hey lads,just finished putting d16z6 motor into my sedan.it originally had jdm d15b,and im still using that ecu and wiring loom.engine seems to idle a bit low now and hesitates on acceleration,do i need ecu to match engine or should it be ok?
i know d15b produces similar power at similar rpm but im not sure if its fueled enough for 16z6.

Make sure your connectors for sensors are hooked up in the right place, its gotten me more than once. A few of them look the same but def aren't

Make sure you get the P28 ecu to run it.
Thats probably why it hesitates, D15 has a diff map than the d16 requires for optimal factory spec performance.

No need to get it chipped, the P28 is for the Z6
