I need to take my XB9R into the garage for an MOT test so need to revert to stock exhaust, I am running race kit at the moment. I bought a stock can and ECU off ebay a few weeks back, is it just a straight bolt on and plug in stock ECU or will I need the dealer to reset anything? I was guessing as the can and stock are already set up to work together it will be a straight swap over and ride? | ||

Even with the factory race ECM, yes, you will need to rest the TPS(throttle position sensor)...most usually only charge .5 hours labor.. Chase | ||

Just replace the muffler, no real need to replace the ECM for an inspection. | ||

Not sure exactly what an MOT test is, but I think he's concerned about exhaust emissions. If that is the case, I'd leave the existing pipe on and just swap the ECM. Yeah, gotta do the TPS reset though. | ||

Well as it turns out I think the race can was probably fitted with a stock ecm and no adjustment. With the race can it ran over ok but I got a lot of backfires on deceleration, just as a test I swopped the can out and she runs over sweet as a nut! So certainly I'd better get the fueling and TPS sorted when I put the race pipe back on, thanks all for the advice anyway |
