I now have the bpt and the Jspec BP26 ecu...my wiring is obd2 since my mx3 is a 1994 RS; I will need some parts like a protege GT airflow meter ....<p>Anybody have any experience in switching to a protege ECU or a bp26 ( jspec ecu) like mine using the obd2 wiring of a 94 mx3 RS???<p>I know some wires will have to be cut since the obd2 wiring has many antipollution devices that are not in the obd1....<p>last resort will be using obd1 wiring from a prot gt or LX....my friend successfully swapped a bpt with bp26 ecu in a protege GT so i would imagine this would possible....<p>any suggestions????<p>this is why i need the wiring diagrams from the shop manual for the ecu for the 94+ mx3!
