|  99 B16a2 into a 96 EK coupe. Ok I have just swapped a 99 b16a2 out of an EM1 into a 96 ek coupe. The coupe had the d16y7 in it. The problem I am having is the ecu from the em1 had one extra gray plug that does not seem to be in the harness in the 96 coupe. I was wondering if it needs a conversion harness but both cars should be obd2 as far as I know. I am new to this so any help on this would be great. I can post pics of the plugs if needed. Thanks in advance. |

| So can I just get a harness to convert it over or do I need to get another ecu for it. |

| what you need is a jumper harness. I'd stick with your stock ecu and get it chipped. But its all you man, just giving you my opinion. |

| your going to want to get a obd2b to OBD1 jumper harness if your wanting to chip your car. OBD2 ecus cannot be chipped or reprogrammed. |

| yea its a stock b16a2. But no body in the uk chips ecu's that isn't charging an arm and a leg. Its cheaper to get one from the usa and ship it here. Just need to know where. |
