DME 7.2 to a 7.8---'02 box S to a '02 911

I am being told that iA may have a way to use my 7.2 with a 3.6 motor just with the flash that Todd has spoken about on Renntech. I will keep you posted.

Really? Do you mean just using piggyback system Todd came up with? If not, I didn't think the 7.2 DME had the memory or Processor Power the 7.8 did... Id be interested to hear what they have in mind

Easy I asked you this in my last e-mail, but since i'm here i'll post it here.


Q: Is there any reason an 03/04 986 harness would not work (without any modifications) running a 3.6 or 3.8 engine in an 01 chassis? This would seem to eliminate the issue of changind DME plugs and adding wires for the variocam + system. Is it that simple?

Actually I know the variocam + wasnt available on the 03 04 986 cars, but is the wiring system not the same?

Or if i wanted just one harness would the 987 harness be the way to go?

I am not averse to making harness modifications, but if i can just get an off the shelf part that would work with a 3.8L then i would like to consider it. I would love NOT to have to get into wiring harness modifications.

I just purchased an 02 996 instrument cluster for my car.... woo hoo!

My 2000 S one is now for sale.

So what did you come up with?

[JP-s-in st. louis]

I found out that if you want it done right you swap EVERYTHING.....

3.6, 02 newer cluster, HVAC, ABS controller, wire harness and 7.8 DME. I am adding the lightweight flywheel, 44lb injectors, complete exhaust, LSD, and my Super charger off of my current 3.2 complete with a one off tune. This should be a very interesting car when finished.

Whoa whoa whoa.....a supercharged 3.6L?

YUP!

They already have the program for the 996 running the VF supercharger and that is how much boost I am running (5-6lbs). In addition I am switching to the Hitachi MAF so we can be a little more creative with the tune. I just hope I do not run out of money and go broke doing this.

My 3.2 is still running fine but when I had a leak down test done cyl 3 and 6 was a little low. I am still driving it and taking it on a 400 mile round trip drive tomorrow. If you know anyone looking for a motor that may need just a set of rings let me know.
