I have a series 1. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with changing the engine to a Neo with loom and ecu etc so it can be tuned without all of the piggy backs. Thanks. Justin

Not so simple as the Neo auto control is quite different. Much easier to convert to manual then you can use any ecu you like ( as I have done).

Or get a Greddy E-Manage - that's just one piggy back.

Well I have the manual box etc all ready to go. Doing that in the next couple of months. My main worry is the fuel economy. Im getting 17/100 have changed o2 with no difference. So after the manual is in which ecu did you change to?

Its all in my sig at the bottom of the page - Link G4

I changed my s1 to a neo and nistune, step 1 change to manual saves about 1/2 off the loom transfer, but still it's a bitch of a job loom has to be spliced to operate between s1 and s2 , as aircon, abs, altessa all have inputs and out puts running through Ecu , so it's quite a big wiring job even with out the auto and if you had to pay an elecy who knows what he is doing would charge over 1k ,

If your only reason for doing this is fuel economy don't bother, not going to make that much diffrence , . If not piggy back an emu or the likes to a s1, the only reason I changed to neo was it was the start for some moderate decent power, with a stronger engine and it was a step to where I heading now/next with my build I also wanted to run and tune with nistune much more economically viable for me ;) . You can just put a neo engine in swap the cas wires around and it will work but you will still have to piggy back onto original Ecu.this way you can still leave manual. I used and tuned my old e manage ultimate on my old auto s1 set up made 240kw on pump98 with an auto fuel pig though .
