why would you buy a ECU pre=programmed, just get hondata for alot cheaper and pay someone $75 an hout to program it.

in NYC i would go to DRT in queens they can tune your car.

If you want to run Spec C cams and keep OBD2, let me know, I have an OBD2 ECU with a Spec C program in it, tuned for 11.1:1 compression. I also have the chip with the stock pregram. ECU is from my 1997 ITR #51...

maybe one of you guys could answer this, Can i just put in the spec c with springs and retainers and cam gears and be done? tune it well and not have to do anything else?

can that be, put them in, tune them and then just drive even long drives?

I would really recomend raising your compression. these cams LOVE compression. you need a header, Like a SMS. you need a test pipe, and exhaust, these's a few things that you need

You can run stock compression and still make 194 whp.
As for drop them in and run, no. There is no way the stock fuel system delivers enough fuel to feed those things. I had to switch to RC310s, which the ECU is also tuned for, to get enough fuel to the injectors. I also had to switch fuel pumps. I am using the Walbro high pressure pump, a Supra TT pump would do the job well too. Then an AFPR, I suggest AEM.
These cams require some fuel. Something the stock Type-R setup cannot supply enough of...

I was thinking about it, and probably for about 3500 I could rebuild your motor
and make more power with stock cams than the stock motor with Toda cams.

I don't think is a good deal

Toda C cams $875
Toda Cam gears $280
Toda valvesprings $355
Titan retainers $220
ECU reprogram $435
ECU harness $250
Test pipe $120
Shipping $50 ?

I think the above should be decent to some ppl on this board.
