Hi everyone,
I am new to this tech forum, and have a plea for help.
My old XC 351 runs a Holley, which shows how out of date my knowledge on hotting up cars is.
I have recently replaced the 3.9L in my ED LTD with an 4.0L , 80,000km , 170KW XR6 engine, just to get rid of the self-destructing 3.9L head.
What I was not told by the slightly less than honest wreckers was about the need for a new ECU or to reprogram my ECU to deal with all different parameters. The LTD ECU plugs are so different that it would be extensive rewiring to fit the original XR6 ECU, so a reprogram it is.
I need to get in touch with a reputable ECU reprogrammer somewhere in Adelaide, South Australia. Can anyone reccomend a place ? I dont expect to get a 9 second monster out of this, but I would be a lot happier if not being overtaken by mums with prams.
Alternatively, I may be willing to try doing the reprogram myself, if any flash writer can do the job, and there are lots of simple instructions available on which parameters to alter and how. Any suggestions ?
Thanks guys,
LTDloser.
