I have an h22 eg, and i think the AEM EMS is the best ecu bar none. That's what i run.

I would say the H22 ECU...Honda did'nt design the H22 to run off of the GSR ECU...

Honda didn't design the P28 to run the GSR either.

GSR's did come only in p72's....it would be smart to use the p13 ecu since that is the obd1 h22 stock ecu. the p28's came from 92-95 civic ex/si sohc vtec. You can only run the p28 if it has been chipped to dohc specs, but then again, h22 programs for the chipped p28 ecu are not abundant. possibly go hondata w/ a socketed p28 ecu?!

the p13 is a **** load better than the p72

the p72 i used was to pass emissions.
it has absolutely zero midrange and top end feels strong but the p13 is a much better base program

if you are going to run a p28 or p72 you need to have it chipped with a program that is for the h22a not some other mugen type knockoff or wahtever...best thing to do is if you cant do it yourself...get a p28 and go with hondata.
