one of my friends in my auto tech class told me that both my and his car have the worst computers and that it throws outrageous CEL's..

now please let me know if he is right or not..

and if it true, do you think i can juss swap in the 1999 computer into our cars?

need info asap.. thanks

umm, never heard of that. actually.....the 97 is the best right now because its the only one that can use the afx modified ECU. and no, you cant just swap in a 99 or any other year for that matter. all year ecu's cept for 98 and 99 are slightly different. your ecu may not be the problem...if its throwin CEL's then check out what they mean. it dosent just throw them for fun...it means something is screwed up. trace the code, fix it, and if you wanna replace your stock ecu shell out the $$ and get the AFX one.

Cool another SoCal 2gnt memeber. If you need to use the datalogger I got one. We can hook it up and see if its the sesor or guages.

My ecu went crazy one me too (I have a 95). My car would just go dead at random. Very VERY annoying in the middle of a big intersection with an assload of cars blowing horns at you . It sucked until I get another one off of ebay for $50. Ebay
