Default My ZC swap

I've got everything I need, but I have one last question-


I've decided to go with an Integra Ecu, 88-89 five speed. Anyway, I found two different Integras, an LS and an RS. One had a PG7-L030, the other a PG7-L040. NOW, will both of these work for my swap? Which one should I go with? I've searched the forums and google, and I found ONE thread that didn't really offer as much information as I would have liked. If someone could help me out with this question I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

True, the PG7 will make your run slightly rich, but nothing to be overly worried about.

You can also use a stock PM6, but it will run slightly lean. Like zccrxsi said above, the best choice is to find a PM7, which are admittedly rare, or chip a PM6 to run the PM7 maps.

Of course, we are talking about a DOHC ZC, right? If it's an OBD0 SOHC ZC, you're fine just using a PM6.

well if it is a sohc zc is it vtec or not?like wizco said u can use the pm6 but if its a singlecam vtec u can use the ps9 from civic sedan and just run one wire vtec.the ps9 has a v tec signal so all ull got to do is take a wire run it from a8 to your vtec solenoid.

Details, details.....This is for a SOHC NON-VTEC ZC ENGINE. Do you gentlemen know whether either of the two ECU's I mentioned in my previous post will work for this swap? Thank you for your responses.

Yes it will, but you'll be better off with a PM6 for the SOHC ZC in my opinion. If you can get the PG7 cheaply, I'd say try both and see which one works better for you.
