BP swap question

[MazdaMan1991]

So recently I found out the previous owner of my mx3 did a bad rebuild due to my stupid low compression, so I decided to go bp, soon ill be picking up and engine, and beginning to rebuild it to drop it in, so here are my questions, is it really plug and play? I've been told it will work with my wiring harness and ecu, I have a 94 mx3 with the dual cam b6, question 2 I would like to boost it prior to dropping it in, running an aem EMS, will I be able to do a low boost tune, let's say 8lbs and my tranny be able to handle it?, question 3 on the other hand I was thinking of going n/a would I be able to push 200whp out of an n/a setup without itb's? That's it for now thanks for feedback and for reading!

1. yes
2. pretty easily
3.not likely

Ok now when I swap with boost should I use a gtx ecu and gtx injectors?

[MazdaNoob]

yes to make things easier ..
look for the stickies in the forced induction section

[MazdaMan1991]

Thankyou much, ill have to knab that ecu and injectors in the F/S section

[MazdaNoob]

actually it's well priced . not a bad deal

You'd probably have to swap out your wiring harness if you're using the GTX ECU/VAF as your B6DE uses a MAF sensor vs the VAF style last time I checked...so the harness probably has a few other differences (personally I know nothing of their pin outs, just the sohc and BP/GTX stuff).

Just something to look into

Right, that's why I was thinking of just going with the aem engine management system, ill also have the aem frontpunt which has a built in map sensor.. sounds easier to me still would like to run the gtx injectors

If you're going to the trouble of running an AEM EMS why would you bother with tiny injectors?

Starting with a GTX setup just to get the car running shouldn't be that difficult, I've got a factory wiring manual for a 94 somewhere that I could get the ECU pinouts from if necessary...

^^hmmmm sounds appetizing......

I'd be interested in the B6DE pin outs too if you have them handy Atomic

i second that pleaaaassse :D

ugh, turns out it was the body wiring manual. I have a Chilton's for the car somewhere though, maybe that has the pinouts

ill prob just go n/a for now then boost another jy bp lol
