NY '87 Turbo ECU work in a '91 Turbo?

Will a 1987 Turbo II ECU work in a 1991 Turbo II? Probably a silly question, but I cannot seem to find a N370 ECU...

might as well get a haltech...for the price of the n370 ecu, afm, boost sensor, tps, etc, you are over half way there.

Start a WTB thread in the proper section stating what you are looking for N370. Easiest way to find one is to let one find you.

I just wanted to double check. I already made a post looking for a N370. I found one near where I live for $650.

wow, at that price you should much rather bend over with your pants down and take it..... thats ridiculous.....

Be patient, you should be able to find a N370 for $200 bucks at the most. In a pinch, you could use a N378, the JDM ECU.... some have had issues running them with USDM engines / harnesses and others have not.

For $650 bucks, go standalone.

I have a N374 ECU with a JDM Wire Harness. The Issue is in my US car the JDM Wire Harness does not reach the ECU, so I put back in my US Wire Harness. Right now I am waiting for my N370 AFM to show up, but I want to get a N370 ECU to be safe.

My other Idea is to relocate the N374 ECU to make it work with the JDM Wire Harness...

Believe it or not, I have 5 (N370) of them, 4 stock and 1 G-Force modified ecu that I'm presently using, but as stated, they aren't cheap, so I guess that's why I have 5. Like antiques, they become more valuable with age but only if someone wants it for the price.
