ECU dyno testing

[Kevin J. Hart]

IIRC only the 98+'s have all the extra emmsions equipment that requires
hacking of the harness and removal of the rear o2 from the code and the car.
I know ive seen people pull their ECU's many times in b14's like Jan 5th at
Ben's when we pulled Johns and put in the new JWT ecu with turbo map and
stuff in it.  Now on Ben's 98 se he had to hack his harness, John pulled his
car in put it on jack stands, one day later we changed ECU's...no hacking
done.  When Ben turboed the 98 the harness had to be hacked and personaly
its a nasty hack i wouldnt do :) then that is me.  Ive wondered why someone
doesnt make a patch block that moves the pins around to the right places for
the 98's.  I bet it would sell a bit, requires no research since its all the
info is easily found, just some soldering knowledge and then try to make a
block out of old parts or something...oh well

I think you are.... ;)

Ive pulled and pluged a a few JWT ECU's in b14's and b13's...no hacking
needed.  it was just the addition of the huge ammounts of emmisions stuff on
the 98+'s.  Thats why Naji used to complain all the time cause JWT never
made a ecu that didnt require hacking for his 98 se-r.  Where as the rest of
us with real se-r's (ducking...wait some say i dont have a real se-r....so
maybe i should take up arms) dont have to worry about such petty things as
rear o2's and log rear ends... :P j/k
