Should i change the ECU?

[eclipse95racer]

i am putting a Star Stage 2 Turbo Kit on my 1995 eclipse GS. so i was wondering if i should change the ECU to a GST ECU. i am also putting in a manual transmission so i know i wont be needing the Automatic trany ECU. anybody know what i should do?

a 4G63T ECU won't work with the 420A the GS's had.

(they're two totally different motors)

You might *possibly* be able to get an SRT-4 ECU to work with that tho.. probably be easier to find a standalone solution tho.

im not really a newby or anything i just dont know everything. what are you talking about when you said to get a stand alone system?

also..... do you know of anybody that has put the SRT4 ECU in a 420A eclipse? im not really sure if the SRT4 engine is the same as the 420A engine.

PLEASE do NOT post information that you have not researched and do not know anything of. The SRT-4 does NOT have a 420A motor, and therefor the SRT-4 ECU will NOT work with that. get a GS Manual ECU or a standalone like Greddy, AEM, Apexi or something.

thats what i thought. i was sure that they werent the same engine. and thanks for the tip but im still puzzled on what you guys meen with the "standalone" should i just look it up on a search engien and figure it out for myself? hahaha if there is anyone on here that knows a bit about ECUs and general causes and effects with them please PM me, i have a MAJOR problem and i think its ECU related. thanks
