Default 98 hatch/obd2 00 gsr motor/chipped P28: What's a better ECU?

i got a 98 hatch wit an obdII 00 gsr motor. I have it running on a chipped p28 for now. I also got a p72 the gsr ecu but my car runs like **** with that one. Is there anything besides the p28 that it will run good on?

is your P28 chipped? I hope you are not running a stock P28 on your gsr engine?

I put the gsr ecu in my other car and it runs fine, but then the stock p28 is letting me pull alot harder in the b20vtec coupe. When the gsr p72 is pluged in it runs like crap and yes it bogs too. So last night we pluged this same p72 in another one of our buddys car and it runs fine! WTF Im just lost a bit.

can you take the time to spells dem wordz rights? and a stock p72 is obviously not going to run as well as your chipped p28. keep the p28 and get a real tune instead of riding on the garbage basemap you are probably on.

You live in Lynwood, CA? Find $240 and go get your car tuned with that P28 at Import Auto Pros in Westminster, CA.

I guarantee your car will run 100x better and none of that sputter bullshit.

I only wonder if your GsR still has the secundary throtles intake manifold ??
If you do you need to change it to Skunk2 or blox, since you're now running a p28
and yes get your car tuned also like arthas said.

keep your p28 and go to the tuner to get a street/ dyno tune.
