    It will all go together. Personally i would try run the vtr ecu. Although neither ecu would be great for the job.
    You wouldnt really see a noticable gain tbh

    Dear forum members,
    i need some help regarding a 1.6 saxo vts

    to be more exact my friend needs some help
    but he doesnt speak any english

    PRobLem: only 3 cylinders are running. (sometimes) the case was good at the beginning when all four worked before it was reved but now only 3 cylinders work all the time)
    the car is not used due to the problem. (publictransp. :'( )
    we tryed changing the spark plugs but the problem persisted we changed the thing that you put onto the sparkplugs with the rubber nipples (sorry dont know what it is called in english) it didnt fix the problem
    we are going to measure the compression ratio to see if intake outlet valves are good. no data yet.
    the engine header was upgraded a little i think
    if we take it off again the engine will be trash and its fastened up real tight with god knows how much Nm
    im thinking there is a problem with the cables feeding the the black thing that gives electricity to the spark plugs or the computer. can this be the problem?
    has anybody had this problem.
    we dont know anything about the electronics , we put the car together with much care!
