Answers needed ASAP Questions on ZE Intake Manifold, ECU

I have a 95 MX-3 and just recently did the KL ZE swap. I was wondering what intake manifold would work the best being that my engine came witht he one that couldnt be used? Also with the J spec ecu, doesnt it have a top speed cut off? If not then does it throw out any codes and where can I get one. Or would it be better to just send my ecu to Corksport and have them tune it for me to the specs. Another big questiopn was I heard the Hot Shot headers for an mx-6 would work on a mx-3 with only minor mods. Can anyone verify for me. Thanks.

Its the same + EGR (it can be bloced off) As far as the ECU goes, Im unsure about the cut off but I know you can get one form LAzzie (refer to the user feedback forum for contact info) Hotshot headers will work, but you have to modify your exhaust to get them to fit. I believe they are longer than your stock and some has to be cut off of your existing one near your flexpiipe.

Where can I get a 95 Milleneia IM form wiht out going to Mazda. And you also say the ecu will work but dont know about a top speed cut off. Whaty about any engine codes once you switch from 1.8 ECU to the Jpec. And the headers you say will work but need minor mods. One more questions would the fuel rails or injectors ont eh manifold my ze came with be bigger than the 1.8's. Thanks

try www.car-part.com for the manifold.<p>you can cut the speed sensor wire to the ecu and remove the speed limiter. not sure what exact wire it is though.

J-spec cars dont have cel so you wont have to worry about throwing codes with the J-spec ecu.
