i have had zero problems...where did you hear that from?

sure there isnt the amount of support as obd1...but you can still get an above average setup from on obd0 ecu.

 

BRE, turboedit, zdyne u got a few choices

 

bump

 

zdyne

 

TE isn't recommended for over 300 whp due to lack of IAT/CTS corrections with big injectors.

ZDyne has always run solid.

I've only tuned two cars on BRE, but they ran stable and Ben's a good dude who has put some work in on the app. I'm sure he could tell you of any flaws or limitations if you contacted him about it.

90% of everyone converts to OBD1.

 

I've been tuned on TurboEdit for the past year with 0 problems. It is true that there is way more support if you switch to OBD1 but for what I wanted, TE does the trick.

 

hit the dyno yesterday and got tuned on OBD0, it worked well, TE and an Ostrich works really well.

how ever if i had the money i would have upgraded to obd1. it is better.

 

here's my obdo...
made 332whp 268lbft @16.9 psi on a shitty 91 gas,turned the boost up to 18 but the ignition was missing up top..
set up
9.0:1 cp pistons bored to 81.5
eagle rods
p&p with crower 403s
t3/t04e 57 trim,labfab log manis,tial 38
rc 750 tuned via TurboEdit OBDO ..
3 inch dp,3 inch exhaust..

 

i used to run OBD0 on my built a6..

the program was great.. cold start was a bit rich with 700+ cc injectors, but it was manageable.

made 300.08 whp on the stock A6 head/cam, pumpgas, and it was exactly how my car was driven every day, not just a dyno number.

i had a lot of distributor failures though, i hate old honda dizzys

 

if you've spent your hard earned $ on a decent turbo set, spend the extra $ and go obd-1.

i ran the zdyne for a bit, and unless you buy one used for cheap, they arent worth it. with the s300/neptune/ectune being around the same price with tons more options, your better upgrading to obd-1.

i got all my stuff for my conversion from xenocron it will cost a bit more in the end, but its worth it to make the best of your setup.
