JDM KL Millenia swap into my Protege5 thread

[PrinceValorum]

What exhaust are you running with it? Can you fit standard headers on a KL in a Protege? Keep us posted how it continues to work out.

OBX headers to the Corksport Power series P5 catback with a resonator and no cat.

Took some footage today, I'll work on getting it up tomorrow.

[PrinceValorum]

Here you are. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Thanks again for making that little video, Wes. It turned out great. I can't wait to make a better, longer one with more footage and some racing in it (track and street).

Little update; the KLDE I had in my P5 is now in my Millenia (fittingly enough) and I'm buying a true ZE very soon for the P5. With some bolts on, MS and a good tune I'm shooting for 200whp.

I miss my P5 so much. She's sitting in the garage this winter while I horde parts for her. haha

Here's some dyno info from the JDM DE when it was in the P5.

Those are some strong numbers for the mods!

[sloww93]

Jdm Curveneck is flat pistons square ports and kl101 cams? Either way those are great numbers

Side note. Has anybody had a +200whp N/A KL?

[ZE Power MX6]

^ He has a DE so no flat top pistons, pretty good number for a DE tho.

[Lewis7789]

Yeah, it's a DE so no flat top pistons. I pulled the heads to make sure when I replaced the head gaskets when I thought one was blown. But it does have the KL-01 cams. And I port matched the heads for the IM.

Like I said in the dyno info, it wasn't running like a standard DE though. It had a KL47 ECU and MAF so basically like an OBD2 Milly motor. But a healthy one indeed. It's still running great in my DD Millenia.

[Bane92]

Cool plans you have for this, I can't wait to see more!

[ihone]

Lewis - I've always loved that car man. It's actually kinda what inspired me to try the KL and ATX in my P5. Alas - I needed to man-up and get a man-pedal (despite my wants....lol).

[turbotyla]

this car sounds amazing

also with the kl47 ecu that is obd2 correct ?

did you keep you obd2 port working and did you end up with any check engine lights.

i am swapping my 2001 mazda miata and i have to have my obd2 working and no cel to pass emissons.

as of right now i am trying to decide which ecu i should go with and wiring harness.

i need an obd2 with a manual trans. will this ecu work for me ? because i will scour a few junk yards haha

[daweb]

[turbotyla]

Sweet thanks guys I'll look for him

[my95gtprob]

Lewis, this is Andy (Slotege5_2003) on the Mazda board. Good choice on the full ZE. I love mine. Keep me posted on the progress. I'm interested in what you think on the motor differences once you get it running.
