03 Eco motor with 02 ECU
Monday, May 29, 2006 9:00 PM
ok, i have a 2002 ecotec. my question is will a boosted 2003 ecotec with the 03 fuel rail and all 03 parts run off of the 02 ecu or will i need to get an 03 ecu. i have ask countless gm techs and they had no clue, so im asking you guys. the reason im asking is because i have a donor motor from an 03 that im boosting right now and am wondering if im gonna have to find an 03 ecu or if my 02 will work, and i figured since the motors boosted then it would go in this forum. all comments are appreciated. did a search and couldnt find anything on it either

just fine? not so sure about that

since I switched to an 03 rail and 03 injectors the car will stall when coming to a stop if the coolant temp is less than 140, runs fine on 02 injectors the impendences are different slightly

if you have extra time and money, turbo all the way. If you want reliable GM warranty and a good HP boost S/C. Turbos can be trouble free, but often are not.
