no horsepower.........

Post by cozmo959 »

i got me jdm ze working and im using a KF-15 ecu and je50 VAF and it feels like i have a lot less power than my K8 i would assum that i would get more power off of the kf-15 ecu than the K8 ecu....but i guess not it feels really weak. i have no CEL and everything seems fine ( compression , timing, new clutch, im using the ZE intake manifold as well. i have intake, headers and exaust)the car is running a little rich. anyone have any ideas??? plz help

If I remember correctly you disconnect your negative battery cable, hold the brake pedal for about 25 seconds. Then reconnect the battery cable and you should be all reset. I imagine there are other ways as well.
