This isn't a realm I have crossed over to. I have never had my own laptop or anything. So let me get this straight, you download Crome and then plug the computer into the wiring harness for the ECU and set the ROM numbers according to my personal preference? Where do I get the cable to run from a computer to the OBD1?

 

Search it on google. Also do alot of reading in the EMS forum.

 

you need to chip your ecu first or buy hondadata ecu or any other product that allow you to change your fuel maps, I guess that is what you after

there is some info about chipping one of honda ecus

good luck

ps use google next time, there is plenty info on it

 

I read that the 92-95 DX non Vtec ECU doesn't need any chipping or modifications. Is that true?

 

no not true, need to add a chip kit and vtec kit if you want vtec
cable from laptop to ecu is either datalogging cables or ostrich or hondata

lots of info. I did hours and hours of reading even made alittle notebook with my notes before i even attempted to tune my car. i was so nervous tuning my first turbo car

 

I don't want to make it vtec. So how does the computer connect to the chip?

 

hondata uses a wire, samething with ostrich's to connect to ecu. if your running a chip, you burn the chip using the chip burner and put it in the ecu,

 

So essentially, I would get a chip kit, install it, then program the chip, put everything back together, and it will be tuned?

 

basically yeah but now you gotta deal with tuning it correctly

 

So as far as the actual tuning goes, that is where plugging in the laptop comes into play; to read how it is running? I might actually do this, seems like it would be pretty worth the money and effort.

 

It's not as easy as it sounds or as hard as it may seem, but if you don't know what you're doing you'll blow **** up.

Take EFI 101 if you're serious.

 

you plan on tuning just your own car or other peoples?
