park neutral position switch (pnp switch) senses position of transmission select lever indicating engine load due to auto trans engagement based on this signal ecm/pcm commands iac to increase opening to keep a steady idle, what that tells me is that there will be issues on the manual rom and you'll need to adjust to get an idle ...
just read the mitchell ondemand5 program on the lancer auto trans
the ecu/pcm controls the invecs-II system which consists of the adapative shift control, including the shift solenoids and torque converter clutch (TCC)
So it wont work on an auto equipped lancer Unless you can copy the code from the lancer auto rom and add it to the evo rom

Senate and RS ... I <3 you guys. I had never thought to try it as the Evos have issues swapping different ROMs back and forth ... some swap, some don't. It was an assumption that the ROMs wouldn't work since the IDs were no where near any Evo ROMs.
Oh, and I didn't see the Tephra ROM info posted here ... you would use the 94170715 V7 (or other Evo VIII ROM), correct?

Wow.. So this means. for the 4g64 swap, a lancer ecu can be used, just flash the evo rom onto it, disable the imobilizer, etc etc.. and it will be pretty much the same thing. So i can flash an evo rom to my lancer ecu, and use it, and sell the evo ecu to make some cash back from this swap huh. 
its genious.
its genious.

The cpu port setup still refers to the same places despite the pin outs being different otherwise one of our testers ecu's wouldn't even idle.
I do sense it has some pin to indicate if the car is in drive or not which means the idle stepper tables will need to be reworked to handle this case.

Realize this is a rom from a 2.0L car and the compression is way down compared to you 2.4L guys so on the stroker option alone the timing will be way too high. The low compression of the evo motor allows for some crazier timing.

Damn though its really bad, Im going through my log now and any significant throttle is knock counts in the teens!!!! give more and I see spikes of 30+ 
not good, I wonder if the knock sensor is defined different on the evos. Also I see 0,0,0,0,148!!!!,0,0,0,0,0 lol

Just to verify but this is only for turboed lancers correct, or would this work in NA lancers as well? Sorry if its a dumb question but I'll rather ask then be confused.

Thanks its ok I am not using any of the stock evo timing or fuel, I interpolated my small maps from the lancer ignition and fuel into the big maps, and my 03 is a 2.0L too Damn though its really bad, Im going through my log now and any significant throttle is knock counts in the teens!!!! give more and I see spikes of 30+ not good, I wonder if the knock sensor is defined different on the evos.

Hows your fuel man, wideband setup and working like it should?
