Re: Accel DFI Gen VII / Gen 7 Standalone Computer System.... anyone have one? (ekb18c)

i have no sensors as of now, but i'm plannin on buying a gen 7 that has been converted for a 4 cyl honda from.... i forget.... anyway...
will my guage cluster work?
what sensors will i need to use this system?
can anyone help me with a base map? or will the startup program it makes be sufficient enough to get me started?

Why are you buying a gen 7 kit that has been converted for 4 cyl honda? Accel makes gen 7 specifically for 4 cyl hondas.
The sensors that you will need are included in the box from Accel.
If you never wired up a car before, I would suggest you let someone who has done a few dfi installs to do it. DFI intsalls aren't the easiest installs, plus you will have to add in a few relays.
There are a few ways of wiring up the car. You can graph the two harness together or completely remove the stock harness and replace it with the dfi harness.
If you go and get it done right by the right shop then everything will work. (Including AC)

Accel makes Gen 7's for Honda's, but to the best of my knowledge, the main difference is the injector harness. When I was selling mine, Ken at DFI said it can be used on any vehicle since all DFI's utilize the same sensors. So the only difference is the injector harness.
Also contact Job Spetter at http://www.turbopeople.com, 914-478-1727.
He's the best when it comes to tuning DFI, TRUST ME! He also helped design the system.

This probably isn't allowed, but I have a wideband O2 for a DFI gen 7 for any of you users of that system. Was gonna go that route on a friends car but then got a good deal on an AEM EMS system. I'd rather have the AEM wideband that will plug and play right to it.
Make an offer any of yous guys.

If you havent installed one of theses let the pro's set you up. All the plugs for the honda are G M plugs, so you have to cut and put honda plugs on it. Better off to pay someone to install it for you just tear the dash apart and make is a easy as possible for the installer

If its the same difficulty installation wise as Speedpro and getting all the accesories to work, then you're gonna have fun with it, haha

Re: Accel DFI Gen VII / Gen 7 Standalone Computer System.... anyone have one? (TurboDANDEE)
the hardest part will be tapping for sensors i think. as for the distributor, chase said he could walk me through it on the phone... said it wasn't that hard to do at all.
