cls ecu since i have cl-s engine trans
cls ecu can support the extra fuel needed for the 3.5 good enough to run the car fine, just not to its full potential

or just a piggyback fuel management. like emanage


But if he goes that out, isn't he still basically relying on the stock ECU t odetermine the amount of fuel to be used?
I've heard many people run lean when they try that.

Don't know how true that is tho

A Guy in the QuebecAccordClub did the j35 swap but wasn`t able to clear the space needed when he was closing the hood. So He put the J30 head on the J35 block.

So I figure you have find a way to clear the hood closed?

richies harness prevents the CEL.. i threw a CEL because my ECU was no good.


you need to swap ecu's to prevent using richies harness. use the ECU from the trans you get, but if you keep your j30 you have to get the crank sensors and stuff like that too from the matching ecu just for the ecu you register the engine... they use different pieces... for info like that you need to check out v6p, a lot more swaps happen there then here
