1G 2.0 N/A ECU VS Turbo ECU

[Gigaah]

Do they hook up the same? If you could find a 1G EPROM ECU N/A 2.0 of the same year could you socket it and flash the EPROM with the turbo code and use it in a turbo 2.0?

Basicly I have a 90 or 91(manufacture date in 90 so it could be either) N/A 2.0 in my driveway I'll be stripping before it hits the junk yard. I paid the guy 70 bucks to strip body parts and the windshield from it and I wanted to know if I should keep the ECU if its EPROM.

Nope, won't work.

Nope, it won't work isn't the right answer.

It can be made to work but you need more than just burning a new EPROM.
The NAs are missing the knock sensor board, a couple of driver chips, and need parts in the injector dampner circuit changed and a few other misc changes.

It might not be cost feasible but it can be done.

thanks steve, I apreciate it. I'll just sell off the ECU then. Since removing it I've found it isn't EPROM anyhow.

For about 98% of the dsm community, it won't work. :laugh:
