This is looking remarkably straight forward....

From what I was told its just a case of making sure the plugs are moved tio the right positions from VXT to 2.2. No big deal so no guide needed really.

easiest option is to buy a full vxT engine loom and modify that

think my car went on the dyno yesterday am awaiting news

[techieboy]

Fingers crossed for some positive news and some real progress again. Don't know how you've kept the faith, this long.

Don't know how you've kept the faith, this long.

At times I felt like that, however it's just one of the problems with doing something completely new.

Can't believe all this time, effort and money I have spent was due to a bad setup (lug position) on the Comp cams I had installed when the harrop when on originally. Wonder if the oem ecu would have been able to cope? at least the z20let will have better mapping capability.

[Muncher]

Nick, For the cost of swapping to that ECU (£300 for me all in) it's a no brainer, even if it could be mapped on the z22se ECU, the z20LET will do it better. Imagine running into one of the problems we had on the z22se ECU such as getting the 2.4 manifold to map properly. The time and effort that took to resolve was enormous, that just wouldn't be an issue with the z20LET one.

How exciting. Fingers crossed for you nick!

Come on Nick, don't leave us in suspense all day!

Im keen to see what CS can manage too.

Bit of an update they had it running on the dyno but they have a problem with the throttle still shutting itself off in the middle of the run at about 75%. He is investigating now and feels it's something with the software from the Turbo map and the modifications to run the s/c setup

[Exmantaa]

Too bad for you that this is still not running right... Did they give a time estimation on a possible fix for this?

This is just teasing me! I saw the thread had been updated and I was sooooo excited. How do you keep your composure Nick?

Dont say that, they wont ever finish now

You better do some research then

They still can't get above 80% without the throttle slamming shut, anyone got any ideas?
