After having sold most of my Gen 3 V8 swapped cars, I'm looking into another swap. This will tentatively involve a 2006 2.4L NA Ecotec from a G6 and I'm planning to add an aftermarket turbo & larger injectors to it. I'll use either the Solstice/Sky MA5 manual trans or the one from the Colorado depending on how far back the shifter sits. I see on the supported vehicle page the transmission is not supported by HPT. I'm leaning towards HPT vs Megasquirt since I already have the HPT SW from my other swaps.
I plan on using a VCM & harness from a 2007 Solstice GXP (2.0L turbo Ecotec). It appears quite a bit is interchangeable on these engines, just like the Gen 3 V8s I am used to.
Any red flags with this concept of using the 2007 turbo PCM on the 2006 converted NA engine? I read about a weak rod issue in the 2008+ engines, so I want to avoid those.
Thanks for any tips or advice while I'm researching this.
