Default d15b vtec questions...

I don't know too much about these engines except that they compare to the Z6's. Do they respond well to boost? What ECU do I need to run one of these in a 92' VX? Thanks.

wouldnt the p08 work better since it controls all 3 stages of vetc instead of just 2?

make sure you have the d15b thats from VTi not the ETi (d15z1/VX) version which would just be a direct replecment.

P28 will work just fine, but it seems not to offer full potential of the motor.

all OBDI D15B sohc vtecs were 2 stage, 3 stage started on the EK/96+ JDM civics, P08 is just a 'regular' sohc vtec ecu.

that is right
plus, if you use p28, i have heard your mileage goes down the drain..

valve cover should be VTEC on the top, look for the solenoid aswell
