Hi Jason, just wondering if you guys have any ED XR8 Manual chips yet? I currently have an EB GT ecu in my car, but i haven't been able to test it to see if it actually works. If it doesn't i would be chasing a 1993 XR8 manual, and with rev limiter off. Is this possible? Also, if the ECU itself doesn't work, will a J3 plugged into the bottom be fine or should i just plug the J3 into my original LTD ECU.
Cheers, Mason |

Hi there,
I have Sprint Auto and Manual bins, PM me for more info. Doubt a chip can revive the dead ECU, depends on what the fault was. I guess if it's flash related it's possible. Jason

Tim,
J3 chips are more reccomended for EL EEC-IV's as they have more memory and are quicker... I have an ED... I purchased any old EL EEC-IV and with a custom tune, I have it converted from BBM back to Log Manifold, From Auto Back To Manual, and slight fuelmap change for a Wade 1636... However added benefits with an EL EEC-IV are, you can run thermos of the PCM without the need to add another temp sensor, there is the output for BBM (triggered at 3800rpm) if you need it... Strongly reccoemend going this way... All up cost for me was almost 300 with a custom tune and the EEC-IV delievered... Cheers, Tim

Not impossble, but totally different architecture. No J3 port either. A lot of work!

Yes, you can plug an EL ECU straight in to an EB, provided it is a smartlock car. Pre smartlock cars require the J3 chip with smartlock deactivated, or a separate smartlock bypass if you are not going to use a J3 chip.

don't see why not... the ECU just needs a speed signal...
have a look at your steering rack.. if you have speed sensitive steering, you'll see two plugs on the box...... boxes without it have only one. |

I have a EL Fairmont Ghia I converted to manual.
It has been mentioned before that once you put in the chip with a manual bin on it, you lose the speed sens. power steering. I could live without it, but its great for parking. |
