EZ30 swap 2010 STI ECU solutions
« on: March 17, 2017, 04:18:09 pm »
Thinking about an EZ swap for a '10 STI. Now if I want the stock ECU to run the DCCD and Electronic Throttle Body but the MS will run the injectors and ignition. How can i neuter the stock ecu to ignore the pending codes and not get stuck in limp home mode. Should I just put big resistors on all the outputs or can the Tactrix cable do what i want?

I doubt that you actually want separate ECU controlling the TB and the fueling, I have trouble believing that's the sensible (or easy) solution.

If you can't figure out how to make the Megasquirt control a DBW throttle*, maybe go Haltech to control the engine (like MCM did with their EZ30, which is probably where you got this idea at all), and a standalone DCCD controller like MapDCCD.


*-I'm sure a MS can do DBW just fine.
