hey hey..

im gettin a 94 civic with a B18B4 engine in about a month (yea they brought some out here in South Africa with B18B's already installed

so i was just wondering what the best ECU wud be to use with the B18B??? ie do i get it chipped/ piggyback/ standalone????

gonna be putting on cone air filter, and header and 2.25" exhaust shortly after i get the car... and im looking to do the ECU... i just dunno which one gives best mid/upper range power...

in the future i'l be doing flywheel and cam and valve springs too...

 

stock P75

 

dude surely a modded ecu will perform better than stock....?

 

just use the stock ecu and wait till you build the head and then you can worrie about what ecu you should run

 

k well has anyone done an ECU with just exhaust an headers an filter??

Its pointless. You're just dumping more fuel for maybe 1hsp. But do what you want

 

k sweet.. thx for the help...

 

wait so if i understand this right, doin ecu wont realy have any effect if u havent done cams and stuff?? what all do i need to do to benefit from chipping??

sorry im such a nOOb...

 

u can chip a ecu to give u more fuel and a longer rev, but it is very pointless if your just using a intake exhaust and header, once u get DEEP inside then u will need it, head work or block work, just stick with the stock ECU

 

you could spends hundreds of dollors getting it chipped and tuned an maybe get like 5 hp.....or you could save the few hundred dollors and get a turbo kit...than you would need to chip/tune the ecu.....

if the motor is stock from valve cover the oil pan...than the ecu should be stock as well...end of story.

 

I'm swapping a B series into my 93 hatch, I have the motor and trans but I don't know what to do for the ECU. Any recommendations?
