i'm rebuilding the head right now and i'm thinking about going with Hondata instead of the Apex-i VAFC. I started to look at the different models Hondata makes, but i didn't know which one i should get....this is an N/A motor, no turbo....please help and give me some suggestions.

Thanks

 

s100 is perfect for you. get a p72, or another ecu that supports the iab's.

 

s100 or 200 would work in his case wouldn't it? If yu go with the N/A setup, I recommend the 3stage rev limit option and of course the data logging capability. I think it would be beneficial to hook up a computer to your car and know what its doing at all times.
Also, a P28 ecu should work too, but since your car is a 93 and OBD1, you might be able to keep your stock computer.

 

hopefully ill get rear ended and totaled this week if so ill sell u mine

 

P28 ot P72 is good but you lose your IABs with the P28 which equates to around 10whp.

 

Unless your turbo charging your car... go with the p72 that controls your IAB's.

why not a p13?

The p13 can not be used with Hondata

 

preludes and accords use a different processor than the civics... i think im going back to stock.. what will u offer for my p72 and s200bd? do u need fuel setup? its would have one hell of a base map..

 

You an still use them and have IAB control with an MSD rpm switch

 

what about who using a p72 without the hondata? is it going to change alot? im asking because im looking to do the same thing and i plan to do a hondata but i need to know which ecu to get first.

 

The p72 will lean out the motor without tuning. If you instal it dont get into vtec untill you get tuned!!!!!

 

since it doesn't work with the p13 (which is what i have) i should just go with the VAFC instead?

NO! you should sell your p13, to make some money back.

Yeah, hondata would be way better than buying a V-FAC for $300-400..... That's about how much hondata will cost then, if you sell you ecu for about $100, you can put about $150 more with it and get a p72 ecu.

 

what car does the p72 ecu come from. will it work fine with the prelude....i dont know about the ecu's, just give me as much information you can about it.

 

the p72 comes out of the GSR teg. i believe one of the reasons for using it is to retain the IAB function, along with all the other stuff like vtec actuation, im sure that there are reasons internal wise on the ecu for why it is compatible with the p72 vs. the p13. but my ? is would this ecu need to be used on an H22 that has no IABs lets say on one with an aftermarket IM, like the Skunk2 if it ever comes out?

 

what kinda of mods are u going to run, will the hondata really give you alot more power in a NA engine?

i've got skunk2 stage 2 cams, cam gears, valve springs, retainers, B&M FPR w/ gauge, with a 9 or 10 lb. flywheel, and i'm thinking about an Exedy Organic clutch.

i dont know about a lot more power,
but i know you can get your 1/4 times down using it

 

Hondata would be excellent for that setup!!!!

 

which car does the P28 ecu come out of? Which one will be better to get the P28 or P72? SInce my car is OBD1, i'll need to get an OBD1 ECU right? what else is involved with switching the ECU's?

 

Which motor do you have in your car?

 

i've got the H22a1, which is the p13 ecu

 

p28 = civics
