so u think it will be safe without bouilding the block???? i've asked around and they tell me its not safe to do it without building the block cuz the b16 is a high compression engine,,,, but i gues this haters here dont want my car to be faster than theyrs???

B careful man, those high comp motors dont like to b messed with a whole hell of a lot in the way of power adders unless their semi-built to built, just make sure that your tune is on the money, and i think with that MSD box u got that u can get a nitrous ignition retard control that can be activated by the hit on your nitrous switch, but b careful , no sense in spending the money on the motor to not have it tuned and then it pops on u

if i was you i would do ls/vtec because its a lil less comp then the b16 u have now and then just spend your money on a tune and timing. oh and do a obd2 to obd1 convertion easier to tune, im just saying use your stock engine harness get a obd2 to obd1 ecu jumper and get a p28

well then you should be all set i would imagine that b16 will hold up to 75 if the guys tunes it for you and you run 93 oct gas all the time.

if its a wet shot it should tune its self.. just need to retard the timing a few degrees.. if worried about the compression ratio get a cometic head gasket thats a little thicker to lower the compression.. if my stock block b16 can do 12psi on a 35r than urs sud handle a 75 shot/..

i have never understood this, why is it only honda is un-tuneable when it comes to obd2 when so many other cars just reflash the ecu and from what i have seen and messed with, flashing is a much better method.

so bascially i guess im asking what is it in the honda obd2 system stops it from being flash or tuned??

from what i've heard not positive tho,,,


honda obd2 ecus are tunable but it cost way too much to do so and its just easier and cheaper and better to switch to obd1 sice alot of ppl have more experience with tuning obd1 hondas its always better to go obd1
