Hi All,
I am thinking about swapping a 98 5-speed SE ECU into my 98 5-speed GXE. The reason I want to do this is to eliminate the speed limiter. Is this a straight foward swap, or are there any precautions I should take? Will this even work in helping me acheive what I want to do?

I am trying to avoid splicing my harness to get rid of the limiter, as per mzmtg's instructions, mainly because I would like to retain the speedo readings when going past the limiter.

Thanks

 

direct swap no problem

 

How much do those run? Is it really worth it? You might just want to get a Jim Wolf Technlogies ECU if you plan on ever getting VI.

 

It will work without a problem, however you are misinformed as to the fact that you will lose your speedometer when when you break the connection (like if you put a switch on the wire that mzmtg describes). Your speedometer will still work just fine. I've had mine on a switch for years.

 

I believe they are fairly cheap used from wreckers.

 

Thanks for the info guys.

Really? Hmm...this really makes me re-think my plan. Does anyone have the sprintmax writeup with the pics? I cannot seem to find it!

 

great idea i might do that also.
