so is this everything i need to run on a stock D16y8 motor in a 99 civic ex coupe? is there ANYTHING else i need to buy? It says no fuel components come with this kit, so what would i need to get? Also how much PSI should i run if i want to get around 180hp. Any answers would be greatly appreciated

from wut i hear an fmu and piggyback are not the way to go, will casue problems down the road, get ur ecu chipped with the proper air fuel ratios and upgrade fuel injectors. eupgrade ecu using a software program such as uberdata,crome or hondata from wut i hear

and thats it? i met a guy at my work that is good with turbos, and ECU's and all of that. All I need to do is give him everything i need, and he can tune it and everything

If you want to run a chipped ecu, you need to convert to obd1 and get a p28 ecu

Unless you know people and/or where to look..

Chipped p28 ecu with a basemap - ~$170-$200
DSM 450cc Injectors w/ Resistor box and clips - ~$80-$100
OBD2a->OBD1 conversion harness - $100
Tuning charges - $300+ (300 is pretty much the bare minimum

I'll say it till I'm blue in the face, do the research, and build your own kit.

Also, I would ask this "guy who knows ecus" about how many cars he's tuned, and how they are running. I'd even talk to the car's owners, and see what their views are. Make a wrong move on the tune, and you're motor will look like mine...swiss cheese

Yea don't skimp on anything. You'll regret it later. DIY and get an appointment with a reputable tuner. The Tune is the most important part of a Boosting project IMO.

^ chipped OBD1 ECU's with a conversion harness. Tell him your setup and mods and he'll send you a good basemap that you can bring and go get tuned. I've only heard good things about that website :)

only costs an arm and a leg, i got mine from stealthmode for 125

wow thats good Tyler, i think its like $150 for the chipped VTEC ECU + $50 or $75 for the conversion harness

yea the guy i know is very reliable, he works at the honda dealership and he knows hondas and such

why does everyone go with the P28, instead of the obd1 P72, which actually has provisions for a knock sensor?

oh and i also recently learned that hte p06 is a non-VTEC ECU compared to the P28 with is VTEC enable. I htink they can disable the VTEC when they are chipping, but its just something to consider.

p06 can be converted to a p28

Typically they're more expensive and harder to find
