It would be theoretically possible to reflash the K8 EPROM but I don't know of anyone who ever has.

Iv done it... had a KFZE in a 30x on a K8 ECU..
Had a DE in a Telstar that was a ZE... no issue...
a KLDE ECU will run a KLZE just fine, people do it here all the time. they're both 2.5L motors, so ya, no problems there
Improper mixture, the ECU thinks the motor is 2500cc while the engine is 1800cc with 180cc injectors, and it's giving pulses for 220cc injectors, there's going to be a whole wack of confusion in the ECU, especially when it comes to reading the extra air coming into the VAF being sucked in by the extra 700cc and the bad mixture being measured by the 02's coming out of the exhaust cause the injectors are dumping in too much duel.
You could do it the exact same way with a Probinator, you'd just have to home that Probinator has either the K8ZE code to flash into his chips, has the K8ZE code to flash into one of his chips, or has the knowledge to change the code for his KLZE flash to work for a K8ZE....those are the only ways I can see you getting a modified ECU/EEPROMwytbishop wrote:It would be theoretically possible to reflash the K8 EPROM but I don't know of anyone who ever has.
