I have an 89 accord LXi. Do they even make ECU compatable with this year.

 

Bump

 

First, what are you trying to accomplish?

Right now you're OBD0, which I haven't seen much in terms of modding those year ECU, but it's not out of the question. When looking for your correct OBD version I found this - http://rywire.com/store/8689-accord-...dc74e73ea24236

Which is a complete harness for a H22 swap that allows you to use an OBDI ECU which I know for a fact is tunable. If you just have simple stuff you want a VAFC or similar may be sufficient.

 

I wanna a Hp increase the cheapest way possible. Whats a VAFC? and are you saying that the VAFC will be sufficient for my presently installed engine.

 

Whoops bakerskater11 say that i was on his account and didnt realize it. that was my question.

 

I have no idea what your supporting mods are or what motor you have installed.

VAFC is a Vtec Air Fuel Controller. But you don't have Vtec.

 

Oh boy...

Sorry bud, but unfortunately you cannot get any cheap hp by just chipping the ECU or using a air/fuel controller. Anything you may have heard about those ebay "chips" or even companies claiming hp from their custom "chips" is a load of bull.

The air/fuel controllers will only screw things up unless you are quite knowledgeable on the system (which it is quite hard to find someone who is). Even then, they don't have the capability to really do that much.

Please, if you must have a VAFC (or the SAFC), only use it to get voltage readouts and other info.

 

if you are boosting an obd-0 engine, some tuners still use 'turbo-edit'. but, not alot of them do, so you might be sol there. i'd suggest, as stated above, converting to obd-1.
