NOOB post: which chip kit
 

a local friend is helping me with my first honda build. He sent me a link to the kit to order to have my ecu chipped. (po6)

the car is a 95 dx hatch and I'm swapping an LS and am going to be boosting it. The kit he told me to order includes a vtec conversion kit. Is there any reason for me to have this with an ls block and ls head? I think he forgot which head I'm using but he def. knows a LOT more than me. I'm about to order the stuff so please reply asap.

You can have vtec added onto your ecu but you don't need it with a ls motor. It's just good to have if you do ever decide to take a different route.

Re: NOOB post: which chip kit
 

There is no reason to add vtec components to your ecu at this time as you are running a non-vtec engine. All you need is a DIY chip kit with a basemap.

If you have never worked with electronics boards before, you would be better off mailing in the ecu to some one to have the ecu socketed/chipped.

he just emailed me "oh %$^ forgot you're running an LS, don't worry about the vtec conversion"

thankyou for the help. Now I can make my order.

No problem. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Re: NOOB post: which chip kit
 

^ two questions.....

As payment for him chipping my ecu I agreed to buy some of his parts to chip a project he is doing. I was wondering if you sell a chip/vtec conversion kit without a basemap?

2nd question, on your site where I plug in all the info for a base tune, will p06 work for ecu info or do you need me to get the whole number off of it?

Re: NOOB post: which chip kit
 

Check out Xenocron.com, it's like $20

^ on Moates site it's even cheaper but I like all the extras that come with the base tune from PHEARABLE. I also appreciate them posting in here with help. But, we'll see with the answer to my first question. Thanks for the heads up though.

Re: NOOB post: which chip kit
 

No, all of our chip kits come with basemaps.
Concerning the base tune, we don't need the whole number off the ecu for the DIY chip kit.
