y8 motor with which ecu to keep obd0
alrite so i plan on putting a y8 into my crx, and someone told me to keep it obd0 i could use a p08 ecu? is this true? is it plug and play? or do i still need to wire up some stuff. because i swear they never made a sohc vtec motor obd0..but what do i know!?!?
go get a 90-91 pm6 ecu, (Si). It can be setup with the exact same timing and fuel maps of that of the y8's ECU. TurboEDIT has one wire vtec activation now, so basically you can get zdyne's basic concept for about 120 bucks, maybe cheaper depending on how much u do urself, and the ecu cost.
ok so i cant just plug a p08 into it???? i have to chip mine? damn..how hard would it be to just wire it up for obd1. how many wires about. ..what about this..i was thinking...can i use my crx si block, put the y8 head, then use my crx intake mani and exaust mani..would that work? HAHAHA or what about if i used the y8 block with the crx head, i.m, and exaust mani...?? just wondering what sorts of combinations i could use of the two parts if any. thanks!
OBD1 is easy.. Just get an OBD1 Dizzy, and a 4 wire 02. Then rewire the dizzy, run the 3 extra 02 wires ( which are labeled with the OBD Conversion ) and then just run your vtec wires. All set and running the motor with an ecu that will do the job right!
