Question about Ecu or Apexii.
my car was stolen a while back i had a Apexi vtec controller in it with a p72. now that im hoping to get the car back up and running, What would be better to get, a P30 ecu with a Tac (if so what tac would u recommend), or stay with the p72 and get another Apexi vtec controller? its a 92 civic hatch, with a b16 swap

Chip the ECU and get it tuned, hands down. VAFC "hacks" screw with timing, and most systems now (crome/hondata/uberdata) can do extremely versatile things, and all for less than a VAFC.
