I have an 01 civic em2 and i am going to be ordering a turbo kit. I have very little knowledge in f/i so if anyone has any advice id like to hear it. but my 2 most important questions are, what engine management to use;(im pretty sure the only obd2b hondata unit is the k-pro) , and what, if any pistons or crankshaft to use?

 

I hear the AEM EMS is pretty good, but you can use EManage from GReddy.

http://www.dezod.com also has a plug and play PCS system, with fuel pump booster kit, so it's really up to you.

The EManage has a little more user friendly interface from what I have seen personally. That is the only EMS I have ever personally dealt with.

Hondata does not make anything for our d-series motors, so just forget about that.

 

with the money you would want to spend on AEM EMS, turbo kit, and tuning/installing, it would be the cost of a k swap. even if you do the labor yourself, youd still spend enough for a whole k20a2 swap just with the AEM EMS and turbo kit if they were brought brand new

I'm keeping my outh shut about this one.

 

I am using the AEM EMS and it's pretty badass....

You can run the emanage but you'll be limited on injector size. Beauty of the AEM is that even if you decide to go K swap down the road, you can still use that system so it's a pretty good feature to have....
