reflashing evo 7 ecu on evo 5

Hey everyone I'm new on this forum,

I've just received my 1.3 cable and I'm wanting to reflash my ecu. I've noticed that my evo 5 doesn't have the white connector for the reflash plug that is attached with the cable.

Is it possible to connect that wire to pin 79 so I can reflash my evo 7 ecu.

Thanks

Max

there is very little between the 5 maf and 7 maf in terms of size and scaling.

if they aren't exactly the same that wouldn't be acceptable to me and I sure wouldn't throw a RalliArt tune from a 7 on it to make matters worse and call it good
