i got this ecu out off my 4x4 saph ,i've just open it to put a stage 3 chip in it on a baby board. As you can see the ecu ain't got the connection for the little pug with the blue cables. Can someone tell what the is going on or what ecu it is.CAr was running fine with the ecu and standard chip in it just a bit slow.
thank lee.

there some better pics

 

Is that not an L6?

 

strange as the casing is an L8 but the inside board looks to be a L6 maybe some 1 has swapped the boards over at some stage

 

Ain't got a clue it came out of a 4x4 saph

 

Hmm strange. That board does look L6.

 

but it was working fine in a 4x4

 

Right if i get a L6 chip, will it be all right in my 4x4?

 

Up for the morning

 

well if you can a l8 to a 2wd then cant see a problem with using a l6 in a 4x4 would need to see if the 2 wires have been swapped on the tps just like you do when you fit a l8 to a 2wd


prob totaly wrong but thats how i see it

hth

 

thats an l6 check the engine loom to see if its got a knock sensor?

theyve probly just swapped it all to 2wd stuff, its not the end of the world mate...

 

Cool so its a L6,the car runs fine on it and now its got an L8 on it with a stage 1 chip on car runs fine.I just can't get my head around it.Would a L8 work without a Knock sensor?

 

Yes providing it was disconnected.

 

but all i did was swap over the ecu

 

This might help you out too

hello can u use an l1 ecu with standard blue injectors from a 4x4 or have they gotta be yellows?

 

you could use an L1 as long as you have the correct chip for the slightly bigger (iirc) 'blue' injectors.

you have 3 options.

1) use L1 with the correct chip

2) use 'yellow' injectors

3) keep the 'blue' injectors and use an L8 with standard chip

 

ere akamob looks like you gonna be giving me my l8 back and il give you my l1 with the st 1 chip and yellow injectors

 

bollocks

why ain't you in your garage? still no bits
