The ECU in our cx went out (p05) and my dad hasn't found a cheap p05 so he just wants to put in a p06. I don't think it's a good idea. Won't the fuel mapping be off and it'll run like crap? does it make a difference if we have a header? And then we'd also have to get a 4 wire o2 sensor. Seems like a bad idea. I need advice. Let me know.

definitely not a good idea, it will run way too rich. The d15b8 only has 8 valves vs 16 on the d15b7.

okay, I told him that. I just needed some reinforcement. Thanks teal :thumb:

Maybe now would be a good time for a mini me :wink:

do not attempt a mini-me on a an 8 valve engine.
unless you are replacing the pistons with ones with 4 valve reliefs.
