Chipped ecu

[sinix3]

Does any one know where to get a chip for a k8 ecu for a klze swap
Or if a 93 mx6 kl01 ecu would fit my 92 mx3 because i think i can get a chip for the kl01 but i cannot find a k8 chip
Oor are the chips the same as long as they are for a klze engine?

Post this in the [WTB] section, you may get more action. Then rename this post to some thing like, Will a 93 mx6 kl01 ecu would fit my 92. All this information is available if you just use the Search feature or Google this question.

Iv tried both searching methods but i may have come across one

The chip isn't really specific to the ECU number as it is to the ECU revision. The Probinator and the Stroker100 chips are installable in a K8 and KL ECU, what you need to make sure is if the circuit board is capable of accepting a chip. Like the ECU for the early 92 K8 has a different circuit board and doesn't take a chip.

Each chip was programmed by the maker. They would make it to suit your car, intake manifold/VRIS and I know Probinator had custom, more aggressive fuel maps over the KL31/36 ECU.

For ECU's, the KLZE KL31 and KL36 use the stock K8 JE50 VAF. If you use a KLDE ECU, you need to use a KLDE VAF.

So would a klo1 ecu not run without the proper vaf?

*Not run properly, the ECU is designed for a certain VAF, otherwise the A/F will be off. You can cheat and use a KL02 VAF on a K8 ECU, that worked OK, but not ideal.

KLDE ECU + KLDE VAF
KLZE ECU + K8 VAF

That would explain why when i put my klde ecu in it wouldn't run. Sweet thank you very much
