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

me either which is why the scaings should be changed.but the stock scalings will be enough to get it fired up.theres been plenty done with this conversion with no probs
