tuning. its much easier to tune for performance, for example, hondata no longer supports pre obd.

see here: http://www.hondata.com/ecus.html

so basically you buy the conversion harness and upgrade the ecu if you already have a first gen b16.

there are ways to still keep the pre obd, like zdyne for one, im sure someone will chime in with more....

but thats basically the jist of it. im basically in the same boat as you, pr3 pre-obd.

ive never done it, im not in a position currently where this pr3 isnt good enough. daily driver, no boost.

but on that hondata link it says:

OBD1 distributor, adapter harness, 4 wire O2 sensor

the other cool thing if you can then run a JDM 4 to 1 header, and use the stock mounting location for the 4 wire o2 sensor.

actually this is starting to sound pretty cool. maybe ill reconsider this mod.

yeh, sux for obd0 as far as tuning goes, but boost tuning is what really makes the obd1 "upgrade" cool.
and doublethink, your sig is funny.
