I just found out that my project car has a P06 for the D16z6 swap that was put into it and was wondering what would need to be done in order to swap a P28 ECU in and get my Vtec to engage for this engine?

 

p28 (is obd1) is designed for d16z6 (obd1)..it will plug and play with no problem..the p06 u have is probably chipped.

 

is there a difference in p06 and p28 wiring harnesses?

does your p06 have 3 plug connectors separately ?

 

like this?

 

bumped for extra help

 

Take the top cover off and post photos. Then I can help you.

 

How would that help? I know what ecu I have; it's just a matter of "would a P28 swap be a simple plug and play?"

 

Because if the P06 is VTEC converted and chipped it would be a waste of money to get a p28.

 

considering the original condition of this car when it was purchased... i wouldn't give him credit for chipping the ecu lol
i'll take a look anyways though and come back with a picture later on

 

doesn't look like any chipping here

 

your p06 ecu is not chipped..27256 labled is where the chip goes on and i think thats the reason why your car runs like ****
the pic shown below is how a chipped ecu looks like, my suggestion to u is buy a virgin p28 ecu and u can chipped it in the future if u are swapping a b series

 

just get the p28 and then when u get a b16 or 18 just chip tha p28!!!

 

I plan on boosting my d16z6 in the future but it seems like i'm going to hunt out a p28 from around here

but would it be plug and play? or would there be a harness mismatch?

 

or you can ship your P06 out to get chipped and call it a day.

 

Yes it plugs directly in. And as long as your engine harness is wired correctly you will be fine.

 

ok sweet
thanks for the help guys!
i think i'm just going to get a p28 and swap it out

 

i got one shipped for 100

You could ship your computer out to this guy or xeron.com and have them chip to a p28. The material to chip it only cost like $20 and then you have to pay for labor, which shouldn't be too much. Just make sure you tell them what board you have before you order.

I got a p28 off someone who was selling it for $100.
It was a direct plug and play... same cel light, srs light, redline of 7900 and vtec crossover should be 4800 (but my cel's are on lol)

that would be your best and most convienent bet
just make sure to keep the P06 as i am doing.... just in case you send your p28 to be chipped

 

I hope your not revving your z6 to 7900.........

 

took it to 7000 and got scared

 

Stock redline is 7200RPM...

I have a built head and I have mine set to 7800
