The cam timing is different on the D16y8 from a D16z6. So using a p28 or any other ECU, it is looking for the engine to be running a little different than it is.
what if he gets a y8 ecu and conversion harness and puts it in time. i have ran a y8 off a p28 and it ran fine, but it wasn't a mini me either. what do you think of the y8 ecu and conversion harness, then he has the right ecu for the head instead of spending bigger $ on a tune etc.
