Convert naturally aspirated engine to turbo with 1.8t control unit?

Hello guys, I had the fun idea of ​​converting a naturally aspirated engine to a turbo.

A freely programmable control unit is too expensive.

Then I asked myself, isn't it possible to buy a 1.8t control unit, throw it onto the vacuum cleaner and then adapt the software with a flasher?

Sure you can do that. Maybe hold a minute – then the engine is junk.

If it starts at all, the control unit must be identical first. Then all sensors are missing or give false signals. The ECU recognizes this and prevents the start process and your car becomes the property.

I think it’s nothing for beginners

It’s nix for beginners, but if you’ve got Bock on it, just try out. Reports would like to see if it worked 🙂

If you make the necessary hardware adjustment and then you can reprogramm the bus… Yes

Because control unit hangs on the bus and the bus controls ALL in the car

ABER, if DAS has to ask, DANN would rather leave his finger on the whole issue

You know that a turbo engine is so hot because an exhaust gas turbocharger is installed? The ECU alone doesn’t help.
