Thread: sr20de ecu on a vvl

hello everyone new to the forum i currently have a 1991 nissan sentra ser obd1 vvl swap i am currently running a de ecu,de headers, and stock de exhaust looking to see whats a good timing for my vvl

I think mine is like at 16* advanced

great i have it at 15* advanced but i do not have my vvl hooked up yet

pretty sure factory timing is 5 degree's for a ve, and 15 degree's for a de.

i had the assumption that on a de ecu the vvl must me more advanced to run better de to the bigger injectors?

you need a nistune/nismotronic daughter board yesterday with the right injectors and maf, other wise trouble awaits.

Better get a NismotronicSA if you want to activate VVL.

Yeah you shouldn't hook up VVL yet until you get a better flowing intake and exhaust

ECU should match the hardware in the car.

Your car will run very poorly, get shitty mileage, smell funny, and be rather annoying if you are looking for any sort of performance or even a normal functioning engine.

right now, I have a 99 g20 with a newly swapped sr20ve.....running stock g20 ecu, b15 dizzy, stock g20 maf, vvl not hooked up yet.....but my car runs great!!!! gas mileage ain't bad either.The car idles perfectly, drive perfectly, sounds awesome.Run poorly??? not sure where you guys are getting that from???
