MSP ECU in protege5???

[SAMOTORSPORTS]

Will this work and do i need to add anything to it?

 

[karvounas]

maybe you need. i don't know much that.

 

[Aricjm15]

It will work.

 

[pw~mp5]

Won't work with automatic transmission. Transmission won't shift.

i have a 5 speed. will i feel any power? i wanted a fsze but too much bs to deal with. how much power will the MSP ECU add?

*subs for humor*

 

[justanothermp5]

lol the MSP ecu only works for a turbo protege, if u want power, adding the MSP ecu to a NA protege is def. the opposite

 

[SprNater]

Go with the MP3 ECU for NA power.

 

[SAMOTORSPORTS]

well i guess the MSP ECU is worthless. i have the one ending in D i guess thats the MSP one. and 10 hp isn't much so i guess i am f-ed

 

[SprNater]

Nah, just sell the MSP ecu on here then use that money to buy one of these http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123746537

Actually, the MP3 ECU is worth the money. Not only do you gain a little bit of hp, but you also yield a smoother power-band. If you want to get the most out of the MP3, you can remove the restrictive VTCS butterflies from your intake manifold.

how do you you do that?

there is a write up in the how to section.... if you dont feel like doing it i have one for sale... pm me and we can talk... ( manifold ) however... if you want the msp setup you need about 3000$ worth of turbo goodies to start out.... ..

well i have an es and also want to put a msp ecu in my car when i turbo it how much boost can i do with just a msp ecu. Will it plug up to te existing es harness?

 

[justanothermp5]

yes, its plug and play, just unplug your old ECU, and plug in the MSP ecu

you can run however much boost you want really...but it'll be rich as hell, you cant really run the MSP ecu by itself and expect to be boosting decently
you need a piggy back (like the split second air/fuel controller) to adjust the fuel for more boost/more power
