Re: d15b vtec wires Not connected!!
you need an obd0 to obd1 ecu jumper with subharness so that you can run either a p08 or p28 ecu. if you use a p28 then you will need a 4-wire o2 sensor. if you use the p08 then you can use the stock 1-wire sensor.

Re: d15b vtec wires Not connected!!
your car is not dohc like the b16, and the fuel tables are completely different. you need a sohc vtec ecu, and there are no obd0 versions of such thing. therefore you have to convert to obd1, and run a p08 or p28 like i already said.

Re: d15b vtec wires Not connected!!
no **** sherlock, i never said it wasnt. a pw0/pr3 ecu is designed for a DOHC engine, that means 2 camshafts. your car has 1 camshaft, do you see the problem here? not just that but the fuel maps are entirely different,and the b16a has a higher rev limit. if you want to blow up your engine go ahead and run it with the b16a ecu.

Wow, this man is trying to help you fix your car and he doesn't even know you! And you are insulting him?
I live in South Carolina and have family member's who are "red necks" I take offense to that...here's a tip, if you cant even understand the basis of diagnosis..you don't need to be around cars.
O wait...I understand...it must be the Mugen Power
