Default GReddy blue box question

ok, i searched but i cant find what i need. Does anyone know if you can use the Greddy blue box which comes with the turbo kit for a 97-00 prelude on a 94 lude? my main question is will it cause problems since the 97-00 is obd2 and the 94 is obd1? Also if it wont work does anyone have suggestions on a fuel management route that i can take for the turbo?

i dont think it will work, the harness is probably different and the boxes are usually set up for the engine it is put in...u can put it in but ur fuel curves and timing etc might be wacky

aem ems, a'pexi power fc w/ commander option, hondata, those are just three among many that will work well on boosted applications.

it won't work and that blue box is pretty crappy. you should use the poor man's hondata....The v-afc. That's what I'm using and it works pretty good.

Just make sure you use some bigger injector, like some dsm 450cc's. That'll do the trick.

I'm running 370's with an fmu and AEM fuel rail. You should probably just get the dsm 450cc's so you can run the v-afc hack properly.

you can use the blue box from a obd2 prelude to obd1. it works. Take it from me. Im currently running this setup on my 93integra obd1 turbo. The blue box im using is for a 97up integra gsr.

I've had this setup for a while now and it works great. Im currently running 8.5 psi and this car is daily driven. Idle's perfectly, no problems starting, with a/c also

I was able to find some wiring charts for a few different models and they all seem to hook up the same way. When you hooked your up did you have a hard time locating the wires or were they in the same place as the obd2? (as far as pin #)
