hey i was j/w what kinda of ECU s you can use with a b16a1 ???

 

pr3 or pw0

 

can i use a usdm ecu or no??

 

there was no, non-obd or obd0 (88-91) ecu meant for VTEC motors....

there is few things you can do...

1) get the proper ECU: PW0 or PR3

2) run a PG7 or PM6 or PM7 chipped ecu, with b16a or uprated program , but that still means no vtec.....so a switch will be need to turn vtec on ...such as the pill method or shift light or relay switch

3)you can also just go with Zdyne conversion...

but remember 1 is by far best way

 

what the hells a pill method and how do you activate the vtec without the proper ecu if you could explain.

 

You can run a pr4 (90 ls)with a vtec program and a vafc to actually activate the vtec. This is what I used to run on my motor. Skunk pprogram and vafc. For sale with a clutch by the way 550.(shameless plug)

afen, he probably means rpm activated switch like a msd which uses little plug in (pill) type thingies.
