Remapped Ecu For Standard Ecu Swap

[GTAAAH]

My mate got EPA'd in my old skyline and needs to take it into macleod to get it all checked out (everything else has been swapped to standard stuff so he'll pass).

The ECU that's currently in it was remapped to suit a rb20 with a r34 turbo, 14 psi boost and a split dump/3" exhaust. We want to swap the ECU over with a standard one out of a friends Silvia (that had a rb20 installed)

The silvia rb20 is standard with a smaller zorst, and standard turbo. Will there be problems running the skyline with a standard ecu (considering it has a few mods)? Also will there be problems running the silvia with a remapped ecu (considering there are no mods)? It will probably only be one day but still wanted to be safe

You wont have a problem. You have to remove the boost controller, so boost will be ~7-10psi or whatever.

A stock ECU isnt going to care or kick up a stink about that as the mods arent major

Ah ok thats good to hear. Will the remapped ecu be a problem running on the silvia for that day, or is it better if the guy finds another way of getting to work tomorrow and we just leave the silvia ECU-less until they can be swapped back?

id say it should be fine... your only talking minor mods etc.

Just tell the silvia owned to drive like a nanna for a day, dont hit boost etc.

Just incase the fuelings are wildy different, which i say they probably wouldnt be anyhow

Ah ok thanks for that!

Edit: It's as simple as transferring the looms over right?

both cars should be fine. Plenty of people run heaps of boost on stock ecus (i wouldn't).

But in your case, it will basically be stock almost. Besides, surely, you can avoid fanging it for 1 day
