Default What to tune with

I'm saving for a turbo project near the end of the year. Plan on running 15 psi on a d16y8 with built bottom end. For anybody with a similar setup, what do you guys tune with and why?

I wouldnt run 15 psi in a D16... its almost stupid to build the bottom end for that power, I would just swap the engine for a B16 or something and trhen turbo it

as long as ur obd-1 then ur choices r hondata, crome, uberdata and neptune. all of these are great choices.it's no so much about the tuning software as it is about the skill of thetuner. u can have great software but if u don't knowhow to use it then.....pointis try to find a tuning shop with a good reputation, knowledgable staff and alot of experience. if u do this then car willbe fast as hellAND be reliable.
good luck

because that's useful input


i've heard most use crome or hondata, but like skrap said... it's the tuner that really matters... find one with a good reputation, and use whatever they do best at

Crome and Uberdata are free and easy to use, crome being the easiest.

Hondata and Neptune you pay for, but essentially do the same thing with more goodies.

AEM, Flash, etc are standalones and act as an entire ECU.

I use Crome, simple to use and effective.
