You will run incredibly rich running the ZC ECU, as the 88-89 Integra ECU makes the D15/D16 run rich, so the ZC will do so even more. The gains are not worth it, so just stick with your current ECU. I would think you could sell the ZC ECU for a good price and get a worthwhile upgrade (that is, if you have the ZC ECU; if not, don't even think about trying to upgrade to it).
