That's weird you guys were able to drive around normally with K8 ecu/vaf... my car was basically undriveable. There was a black sooty puddle under the tailpipe every time i ran it in the garage (condensation and carbon).
Swapping in the new ecu/vaf made a night and day difference. If anything I'm a ...

Re: K8 ECU on KLZE engine cause car to sputter?
I swapped in the ecu and vaf from a 93 MX-6 and the sputtering is gone.
It doesn't feel as fast as my turbo/ZE Probe did, but it still pulls hard. The car is just incredibly excited about EVERYTHING.
Can somebody add a note about ECUs to the FAQ so future swappers know to change it over? Or maybe ...

Re: K8 ECU on KLZE engine cause car to sputter?
I'm in almost the exact situation, and have similar symptoms.
I picked up an MX3 with a 90% completed ZE swap. As far as I know, it's still on the K8 ecu and vaf.
I managed to get it running the first night, but have been replacing all kinds of stuff chasing a serious misfire after about 5000 rpm ...
