Flying kiwi Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 Question, will a VHPD engined ECU make any difference to my SS 1.8? Are they the same unit? Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oilyhands Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 Steer clear of the VHPD ECU, it is mapped for an engine with an entirely different spec to yours, it wont give you VHPD performance but will likely run your engine like a dog.

Jason Plato Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 The VHPD ecu would be programmed to the vastly different engine tune . This would most likley mean you would be running very rich with incorrect ignition settings and poor idle ......pretty much like a std VHPD only worse . I would try before you buy ...I doubt it would be a good move . Better off buying an Emerald ecu , and have scope for future improvements . dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
