Hondata isnt exactly some "chip" that you would drop into the ECU of a bonestock or near stock vehicle. The Hondata is a daughter-card that expands the capabilities of your ECU for the pupose of tuning and output controls for Boost,N20, etc. IMO, for the cost it's more so for racing then for general street puposes.

Check with the FAQ's in the tuning forum, you've got other options besides the Hondata.

you're integra is an OBD-0 system. the s100,s200,s300 is for OBD1.

and what was said above is also true. its not a drop in chip.

if you really want to maximize the potential i would convert your car to obd1 and get it tuned by a professional , as no chips are "perfect" setup for your car as every motor is different

chips are good if up are looking to stay a near stock for the time u own the car but if u are planing to turbo/sc/na bilde your car later go with a hondata but if that relly in not i your bugit then go with a chiped ecu from phearable.com or xenocron.com and when u get your car to the point u need that tune to run it then the is software that can tune obd0 as for the power of it it is not like obd1 but i can be dune

my car is not stock, i have port an polished head, fuel pump, fuel rail, injectors, full exhaust from header back, C.A.I. and the normal plug upgrades, wires, im not to sure of all as i purchased the car not assembled and put it together. my reason for ECU upgrade is it will not stay running after idle drops to 700 RPM. i have ajusted idle and still no results.
