3rd Gen 3SGTE Stock ECUvs MR2 EECU, had a talk with a guy today. Options

Hey everyone,

so in Dire need of a flywheel, fate decided to get me in touch with a All Trac owner who had an extra flywheel. he has put in a 3rd Gen 3sgte in his all trac and loves the hell out of it. he was telling me though that I should be getting a CEL because of the ECU not seeing the water pimp for the intercooler... and this would bog down the system and the car would lacking in performance. he also stated that because he bought a 3rd gen MR2 edu his boost leveled out at about 18PSI (now is 22PSI)

I DO only get 12-14 PSI from my Turbo, but I don't have a CEL. never did, I don't know if thats because I routed the waterpump to just come on when the car power came on or the Wiring Harness Tweak'd did.

has anyone else heard of this before? I'm curious to know. he did offer to put the MR2 ECU in my car to show me the differance (which I intend to do when I get my car back and put in a new flywheel and clutch)

Thanks
Kevin

if you did the resistor mod for it then it would not throw the CEL. if you are not getting it and you got your harness from tweak he probably took care of it for you. i cant guarantee that tho. also not sure if he is running 22psi on a stock ecu because the fuel cut is just over 17. he could run an FCD but they dont work correctly on a MAP sensor setup they make the ecu think its at max boost all the time.
