Andy 3i Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Hi guys, just a quick one. I've just bought a J plate xr3i which is apparently a 130 model...yet has drums on the back and I think 240mm front brakes (it was dark) but has a lift up mtx75 box? Confusing? Anyway, my main question is that if I took the loom, ecu and fuse box...could I stick it in my red one and make it work the 2.0 zetec? My red one has 130 manifolds but an ib5 box whether that makes a difference? My personal thinking was that with only a 6bhp difference would it be ok? Or would I have to change the pin outs on the ecu to run my DESK one? Many apologies if its in the wrong section...I wasn't sure if it would go in mechanical, electrical or general Any help would be greatly appreciated . Hopefully I can come to ford fair this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 It'd probably be fine at 5000+ rpm full throttle, but wrong everywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 3i Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 Define wrong? Basically run the DESK ecu then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy 3i Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 It's rotten and been stood for many years . I feel bad about scrapping it to be honest...if I hadn't of ploughed so much money into my red one I would of probably fixed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
