sasquatch's b6t swap build thread

[canadianfestiva]

Ha nice man! I wish MY ECU plug n played as nice as yours! im doing a BPT swap, picked up the engine cheap, and it came with the bp26 ecu.. but as far as i can tell its not as simple as a plug and play....

[sasquatch]

a bp26 should plug in... you just have to "re-arange" some wires...

[canadianfestiva]

oh ya it plugs in... just keep getting confused..not to mention the BPT comes with a 4 wire TPS not a 3 wire like the BP, abd the O2 sensor is a 3 wire not a 1 wire... thats where im stuck right now... lol

[sasquatch]

did you check clubprotege? they have tons of info on that stuff...

[freshtiva]

Im confused, ( no big surprise there ) are you quiting on the B6T and doing a BPT now ? Or is the BPT for another car. I cant keep up with you. First it was going to be a B6 SOHC then this B6T which isnt finish yet ( is it ?? ) and you are already talking BPT ??? Did I miss something ? I was thinking I had but I just read the whole thread from the beginning and I got lost when the BP popped into the picture.

[sasquatch]

ya... b6 never got compleated cause i got the b6t... the b6t is not gonna get dont cause its to much work and im gonna have to destroy the 323 gt i took it out of cause i need the wiring in it so now im gonna put a bpt in my festiva and stick the 323 back together and sell it... so the last coupple months of my life have been a giant waste of time but its been fun lol...

[freshtiva]

It looks like you are real close on the B6T !!

[sasquatch]

EVERYTHING was done... all that needed was the wiring.... what ever... taking the b6t out and putting in the bp will cost me less money in the long run...

[freshtiva]

Surely someone can help. The link below is no help ? Hate to see all your good work go to waste.

no could easily get it going but i would have to distroy the harness in the 323 and then i wouldnt be able to get it going again and sell it... thats about 1500 bucks that i could use in performance parts for the festiva... and i dont want to scrap the 323... its way to nice to do that

[freshtiva]

I'll be following your BP install then. Which tranny are you using ? I plan on doing one myself this year so Ill be watching. Maybe we can help each other out.

[sasquatch]

im gonna use the 323 gt one (g5mr) i "should" have it done in about 1.5 weeks...

[Maxtiva]

I thought that Chris (Damkid) wanted to sell you his harness from his B6T

I do happen to have an extra 323 B6T harness laying in my garage :roll: :lol:

[sasquatch]

if i did buy it then what am i gonna do with the 323 gt... im gonna have to buy another b6t (hard to find) or bp swap it, then im gonna have to swap the harness or do a wack load of wiring... not again

[Maxtiva]

Put the B3 in with the E5M-R it's not that hard to change the harness I did it a couple of time
