Hey guys been on ct for a while now but haven't had a lot to contribute thus far, Been working on my na conversion for about 6 months and finally got to start her up last night. Shes a 88 gold Calais and im running t3/t4 turbo with front mount cooler vlt injectors and ecu, bosch 044 fuel pump with malpassi fuel reg. My issue is with the turbo ecu. when the na one is plugged in the car starts and now idles pretty well but when i swap to the turbo one it wont even fire up. Is there a reason for this? perhaps a sensor is missing from the na loom that turbo ecu needs? it should at least start i would have thought. 2nd thing seems like a fuel issue. it idles ok but struggles to rev up, i think maybe i need to play with the fuel reg so will do that tonight and see what happens. Will post pics for you to see soon Cheers guys

Is the Turbo ecu standard like someone hasn't tried to chip it and stuffed it up ?

Does the lights on the ecu come on when you plug it in ?
