LSV: A real question for real tuners
hey guys, most of you know my setup, but if you don't, here it is:
LS/VTEC
JDM b16a head (OBD1)
JDM GSR cams
Comptech Icebox (CARB legal)
DC 4-1 Header (CARB legal)
Stock exhaust and cat
P28 chipped (OBD1 untuned)
VAFC2
now, my question.. i'm not into racing anymore, so the advantages of running an obd1 chipped with a custom program is of no concern to me. can i switch over to an obd2 gsr ecu and just dyno tune with the vafc2? will i have to change my distributor to an obd2 dizzy? i'm tired of failing smog.. and when/if i ever sell the car, i don't wanna have to tell the guy that it doesn't pass smog. i just want the motor to be stable and safe while keeping that oomph it has now for dd and occasional canyon carving. thanks.

couldny you just run a stock obd2 ecu for when you go to smog, and retard your timming a bit so you pass. just make sure your car is warm enough and isnt throwing any codes and you should be good. thats what i would do, no need to go through tuning again.
