2002 e825, lithium, T1: motor swap: 5HP vs 7.5HP(blue)

I will probably do my motor swap soon as long as the experts are of the mind that it won’t blow up the T1 controller(pn IC3645SH7R353T1 ). The lithium pack is a 88V/22S pack made of 5.5 module Leaf charged to 4.0V max)

If it’s recommended I immediately reprogram the T1 to reduce ‘start’ current I do have a reprogramming kit for the T1.

I’m not really looking to go faster since the suspension on the 2002 is REALLY stiff and the roads around here have way too many ruts/bumps from poor repairs. I’ve had the motor and new input shaft for a couple of years so I figure I might as well install them.

i think you will be fine . you shouldn’t need to reprogram
