so when i do my modest build for my y8 with the jrsc i'm gonna need something to manage the fuel/air.

new the supercharger kit came with a fuel management unit, and some wiring for the MAP sensor.

but i'm not getting it new obviously cause they don't make it anymore...

SO: i'm pretty sure it's a good idea to get the AEM F/IC controller/piggyback system instead of sticking with the FMU.

probably a better result, better ride, etc. right?

and i'm doing this because i want to pass emissions and using a tuned P28 ECU i'll be in OBDI territory, and i don't want the hassel... any input would be awesome, thanks

Not the ideal way to go, but its OK... I guess if you still need to have OBD2 communication, then its really your only choice. An OBD1 P28(as you already know) with a tuneable EMS is going to be your best option, but wont allow for proper OBD2 communication.

thanks man - and yeah i know - but to be honest i'm only gonna run 6-ish psi

Aem fic will work great, If you need some help with one hit me up.

there is a way around this problem, well all us jrsc guys with emissions have been able to do. I have emissions in my state, Illinois, I've pass easily. Here are the steps. Also DO NOT USE THE FMU, its garbage and your better off with proper tune and right sized injectors. Also make sure you run your map sensor off the jrsc manifold NOT the throttle body.

when emission season comes around these are the steps I do.
1-zip tie bypass valve so supercharger doesn't create boost
2-remove injectors{440cc} and replace with stock{240cc}
3-remove hondata s300 with conversion harness or stepper harness {obd2b->obd1} and replace with OEM computer.
4-driver around for like 50 miles or hard for couple {warm up the o2 sensors so computer has good readings} and go and test. Pass then celebrate with a beer
5-undo everything and enjoy jrsc

also by the way this topic has been covered lots of time and next time search!!

hey man i'm in the same situation you are in. recently picked up a used jrsc for my d16y8. still trying to figure out what i am going to use for fuel management. i need to have my car pass emissions so i need to stay obd2. would like to know what you decide to go with

thanks migrod1 - the only thing i'm gonna say is that i have NO experience tuning with an ecu... i would want to at least do something so i can HAVE some experience... so i can do so in the future, you get me.

i guess it'd be similar with the F/IC - but yeah i'm debating now... thanks for the info.

and i looked a little bit, but obviously not hard enough! next time, next time.

oh! migrod, btw - i'm guessing the 440's are base line what i'm gonna need for the jrsc

i know i'm noobish/don't seem to know much, but im here to learn, and i have NO problem listening

@ joeymak1 & migrod1 - i think i'm gonna go with the p28 and when it's time for inspection just clamp off the line... it's cheaper than the F/IC and you get a better tune/runs better anyway.
