M30 ecu querie

Post Wed Jan 28, 2009 9:54 am

Hello guys..

Just wondering, would there be much of a difference (performance wise) if the m30 conversion is run with a 2.5 ecu? ive been told my ecu at the moment is definatley a 2.5 one, The car idles and drives fine, ive got hold of a 3.5 ecu and plugged it in last night and she fired up 1st time but i didnt go for a drive.. i will try later if the rain stops !.. reckon there will be much of a difference between the two?

Hey mate. You just getting round to it now !!!

You will need the tps as well. If you remember that's what lead me up to checking out the ecu.

Here's an ecu list â†“â†“â†“

Part Number for the tps.

I used a 0321 with 179 ecu but either will work and also work if you have the 150 ecu.

cheers Marc.. The ecu ive got hold of is 150.

Cant remember what TPS i had.. what number tps will i need with the 150 ecu mate?

you saying that either of these will be ok?

0280120321

0280120302

i plugged the 150 ecu in last nite and it started without any probs! would it drive with a wrong TPS or will the TPS need changing?
