Hi, Im new to ZTH. I have a few questions. I hope you could help me with these. 1) I would like to know, as you said ealier the 6a12 JDM specs 170bhp version come with the sport ECU. Is the engine specs the same with the local perdana V6? so if it is the same, if i could get the sport ECU(the 170bhp engine ECU), would it increase the BHP for my V6?
2) Why is it that most people when they are talking about perdana engine conversions, they would highly recommend the 6A12TT engine? Is there any other engine besides the twin turbo engine? As i read, most people would say the engine has high fuel consumption. Is that true?
3) What about mivec engines? Can perdana used any mivec engine? If can, would it come from the FTO? How about the fuel consumption and maintenance for the mivec engine?
Thanks in advance. Really appreciate the help.:regular_smile:
1. well the 170ps version is not any sports ECU-ed version...just that, those are the original flagship model for the 6A12 NA (excluding the MIVEC of coz)....our local V6 were built using the detuned version aka base model which is 145ps....
well not sure swapping ECU itself would work...coz..u might need the mitsu harnesses too...i think..but well..it'll be 10x as hard to find the right ECU than to get the right halfcut which cost only a fraction more...
2. well for original V6......the 6A12TT can be drop in without any hassle..as everything fits...plug and play...... that's y its recommended...besides...since it doesn't require mounting mods....there's no issues with JPJ too
however, if ur ride's an SEi..then the 4G63 series engines would be a better choice.....since the mounts match...that's y....more of them would go evo or VR4 as compared to 6A12TT..
3. yes there is a MIVEC version of the 6A12 which fits the perdana.....however the halfcut's rare...and not many of that limited edition galant is produced.....the FTO's 6A12 MIVEC would not fit into the perdana....due to different in transmission and engine mount...further to say harnesses...
