Any updates on this? Anyone else out there do this swap yet and results???

 

Seriously. I almost feel slightly insulted for all the time I've put into this. I figured every turbo Lancer out there would've jumped all over this.

 

You make a good point, Cmon guys if people dont start why should he even post this for our benefit? If its any consolation I already have my ecu but wont put it in till my turbo goes in.

 

I'm not trying to down your work I'm just trying to figure out why I cant get it to work, im in the process of trying it right now , I swapped the wires and took a 96510009 eclipse ecu.. I tried using evo rom 94170008 flashed into the ecu that is what the eclipse guys do. evoscan also reads the ecu . and give readings for different sensors.

96510009
I get p0100 , p1610 , p0108

94170008
I get p0113 , p0108

both are giving no start situation.

 

idk think you should as far ive seen ppl have been trying to ****** up any evo ecu for cheap when they can and plus you giving ppl down the line the ability to be able to do this, hell i would like to do this when i turbo but i not sure how it will react to mine being auto all in all you've done a great thing

 

I can't account for if an Eclipse ECU works or not in this swap. From what I read in my research, the 2G DSM guys were swapping in Evo ECUs not just flashing the Evo ROM in. The 4G64 ECU also has different pinouts from the 4G94 ECU for some of the sensors.

Those codes are for Immobilizer, IAT, MAP and MAF sensors. Those 3 sensors are some of the pinout differences between the 4G64 and 4G94 according to the FSM diagrams for both.

 

thanks for the response senate ... Ill keep digging... you got a pm...

 

I got my ecu for $100 shipped and its out of an 05 evo I would imagine this should work great!!! I am so excited to get the rest of my parts the only thing holding me back is I am getting married in Oct and so that is giving my wallet a hell of a beating...

 

I bought my 04 Evo 8 ecu for 125 shipped, I don't have a tactrix cable yet, but I did just go to a bunch of local muffler shops to find a quote on welding the flange to the manifold, and I found a good shop down the street to weld it for 50 bucks! Then I need oil lines, and the tactrix and I will do the install, and swap ecus! I am sure I will have plenty of questions when I get there!

All of your hard work is really appreciated, and def glad you shared it all with us! Thanks senate! You guru you!

 

I sure would try it but I'm auto. I'm just going to wait and see how it develops...

 

this is a great alternative, i would have done this if i did not have the AEM ems already on my car ppl should be doing this cheap and great mod

 

ofcourse im doing it, but only after my motor is done, bought my pistons and block today and have the ecu already

 

Ok so a little off topic but just a little.. so having the ecuflash mitsulogger and evo8 ecu, fuel pump and 440cc injectors means I DO NOT need fmu OR adjustable fpr or do I?

 

FMU is garbage.

The stock FPR should be enough.

 

FMUs are garbage. As far as an FPR, an aftermarket FPR would be more reliable to hold fuel pressure if adjusted compared to stock. Also you can't adjust fuel pressure with the stock FPR.
