hey guys
i just wanted to ask if anyone have ever flashed a evo 6 ECU.
which cable supportsmy car? will the Tacrix 1.3 evo 8 cable do the thing?
please guys i need a reply ASAP :S

 

You can't reflash the evo 6 ecu with ecuflash.

However, it's very easy to fit an evo 7 ecu in your car if you want, i think it's only a matter of switching a couple of wires around.

 

^^ yup thats what i did

 

damn :S
more info on swaping a 6.5 ECU with a 7 ECU would be helpful guys..
any other options rather than changing ECU?

 

on the evo 6 u only can read the map from the ecu but cant write a new one?

 

Here is a USDM evo8 ecu swap into a 6 TME.

If you search a bit more, you will probably find the JDM/EUDM ecu swap for the EVO6 which i believe is easier to do.

 

Evo 7 ECU in Evo 6 swap (found it online, do more research before applying):

Swap pins 32 and 34 around
connect pin 20 to 32
connect pin 21 to pin 34 (after they have been swapped over)
disconnect pin 87

Sounds easier than the USDM one...

 

no other options instead of taking off my ECU?

 

I read somewhere that ECUTek has something for the Evo 6 ecu... Not really sure about that...

 

Ecutek is the only option for reflashing a 5/6 ecu.

As above just fit an evo 7 ecu so you can use ecuflash.

In addition to the above wire swaps, you also need to move pin 6 to pin 53 if you want to keep the sas working.

 

whats the sas? :P
dont forget am a noobie here
no one here in my country has experianced swaping a 6 ECU with a 7 ECU :S
i dont wanna be the test lab

 

SAS is secondary air system.

Basicly, it can be used to add in some mild pops and bangs, when you lift off the throttle.

Nothing very wild.

 

thanks man
i was curious how much can the original boost solenoid can handle?

 

I use it for 22psi. It works great for me, although you have to use the appropriate restrictor, allthough i beleive you can take it as high as 25-26psi and still have decent accuracy.

Where are you from in the middle east?

 

thanks Karim.
well i live in Jordan but am originally lebanese
going to beirut on friday to have my ECUtek tuned hopefully
what about you?
