ECU Advice - TME / Evo VI GSR

4G63 ST · 31-03-2012, 11:41

Hi,

Would an unmapped / standard Evo VI GSR ECU plug straight into an Evo VI TME and run at standard parameters or would I have to look at sourcing an unmapped TME ECU?

Thanks.

Thanks for the answer but which of the two options were you saying yes to?!

same ECU, different processors in most but will swap over no problem.

assuming both are standard maps

Yes you can use a GSR ecu they are the same but sometime have different chips inside , but they work exactly the same , the car wont see the difference

Cheers, I was thinking the Evo VI GSR and Evo VI TME are pretty much identical engine-wise although the turbo is slightly different. So guessing all electrics will function as they should?

yes there is no such thing as a TME ecu the type commonly fitted to the TME is also often found in the 6 GSR and the 5
