Using Lsj pcm in a 2.2?

If i was to run a supercharger set up on my 2007 2.2, would i be able to swap computers? Give that my car uses the same cam sensor and will be using the same amount of boost? Anybody any imput. Just an idea that popped into my head. Dont be too rough

youre gonna need to change alot of **** for that to work. if there is ANY tuning solution for the 2.2's you are way better off going with that.

like mrsilent said...contact trifecta and have them do a custom tune for your car...its been done before and is about your only option...

take it out, mail it, wait, mail it back, insert, oops, not 100% for this specific car and app, take it out, mail it back, wait, ...etc...

orrrr...for probly the same price or cheaper have trifecta tune it while still in the car, get a 100% custom tune for this application, and never have to wait...just do it all there...

sooooo much easier and much more reliable.

Honestly if your not willing to learn how to turn your own car for a turbo then you shouldnt be going turbo. It would be to high of a risk for someone to do it if they cant do the most important step on their own.

Grab a snack and jump on the LS2Edit forums and start reading. Also read up on general tuning information to get you started then go into specifics with the software your using.

i agree with this. i think he should learn the fundamentals and basics, but he doesnt need to know how to build all the maps and modify the values to go FI

If its a full custom kit and your putting it all together yourself, you should at least take the time to learn to tune the car. Im just saying its not THAT hard if you put some time into learning how to do it.

Im just getting some things removed from vince's tune, no fuel or spark. That will all be done with my piggyback.
