ok so i just read a post on here about somone having a b16 ecu on their b18c5 and they were shorting them self of power.. now my question is i have a b18c gsr, and i have a civic type r ecu.. so could i also be shorting my self ? thank you for any help you can give

 

you should just stick to what ecu matches your engine. a CTR ecu is made for a CTR, not a gsr.

 

thanks, the reason i have this ecu is cuz it was on my previous motor .. but now i have a jdm gsr so im asking should i switch to a stock gsr ecu maybe ?

yea, get a stock gsr ecu, or get a chipped ecu from phearable.net or kenji211.com for your exact setup.

 

thanks alot for your help..

 

y is it that this is hurting me ? i would like to understand this whole problem..

Vtec is engaging too late for your b18c1 using the ctr ecu.
Other then that the fuel maps are different due to displacement/cam differences etc.

 

besides the fuel being shorted.. if i have a vafc2, which i do, and i can adjust my vtec rpm is teh whole vtec still engaging late ? i will be purchasing a gsr ecu now too.. thanks
