Evo 8 ECU in 94-98 Galant Discussion
Well ive been collecting information for some time and I share this for everyone's knowledge.
Ive made the transition from Evo 8 ECU to 94-95 galant ECU harness, so we too can enjoy all flashing and tuning capabilities. It took some time, this is just a "prototype" conversion, I still need to figure out some of the AC pins. It is done from a GS model point of view - already running coil packs and knock sensor. I can do another one from S,ES and LS - running distributor, but that will be later.

Now the best part: Since the Galant has 3 ECU plugs which are actually the same as the plugs of the Evo 8 ECU, and if the smallest plug (yellow) of the EVO ECU want there all pins would have matched. Still have to swap a few pins, but thats no biggie.

For Red and Blue plugs all numbers match, but still a couple of pins need to be added or swapped. If yellow wasnt there the green 71 for the Evo ECU would have matched the green 51 for the Galant ECU. So the entire plug except for the pin 73 MDP sensor and pin 79 Data link connector are identical (p'n'p)
