And those suck *****.....Do it right the first time.
If you can't afford it right now, then save money.
Don't half *** **** like every little teenager these days with
the "want what I want and want it now" attitude.

Do it right, you will thank me.

 

i understand doing it right the first time but my car doesnt run as it is and i need a car to get around in the mean time and i dont need the vtec so do u think it would work with out hooking up the vtec. and if u had to choose a vtec controller which one would u choose?

 

a vtec controller , for a good one is about the same price as doing a obd1 conversion from rywire.com. dont get a vtec controller i had one and i hated it! it is only good for tweaking (in my opinion) after you have vtec working with the correct ecu!

 

the problem im having is that my car is an automatic and i dont have the time or money to do the auto----&gt;manual swap and its hard as hell to find a good auto ecu that has vtec

 

if i end up getting an ecu which one should i get

 

An auto p28 with an obd0-obd1 conversion harness from rywire.

Are you already MPFI? if you are, you can just use all your current hardware, you just won't have vtec.

 

no not yet im going to do that when i swap the motor

 

if u must get a contorller get a apexi vafc II , make sure it is compatable w\ ur wiring

I think you can use your stock ecu and chip it with turboedit and use the ac output to turn the vtec on.
