Re: ECU question.......... (Red CiViC Hatch)
what year crx? if its 90-91 i'd just reccomend getting the ecu chipped and going with something like turboedit. or if its 88-89 try finding a 90-91 ecu to chip or visit the forums at http://www.pgmfi.org and buy yourself one prechipped. or just search around that site, lots of great information. chipping costs about $75 dollars and most editors, i.e. turboedit are free. hope this helped some...

Re: ECU question.......... (Red CiViC Hatch)
what motor, ECU and OBD are you currently running?
OBD 0 I would get Zdyne or Turboedit, OBD 1 I would go with Hondata or Uberdata. Turboedit and Uberdata are definately not "plug-n-play" though, you have to get your ECU socketed by somebody that knows how to solder ECU boards. Then you have to buy software and hardware to do the actual tuning. TE and UD are more for the DIYers out there. The good thing about them is the tuning software is free, so you just have to pay for the equipment to do the tuning (chips, burners, cables).

Since a crx is obd0 ..hondata wont work..
I would get turboedit..Its free and is almost like hondata..
All you have to do is have the ecu socketed to accept the chips with the program,buy a chip burner to burn the chips with the programs,and blank chips..
Now if your obd1 I would get uberdata..Free again but for obd1..
EDIT..Beat me to it
