For a stock motor i would just stick with your P72... With a good program i do like the P28 more but for now it's not gonna do a whole lot... It looks for no KS input so you don't have run a line for it if you're doin a swap and it also has no IAB control... Later on down the road I would look into it but for now it's may just make you slower unless you've taken you secondary butterflies out of ur manifold or you are runnning a SK2... Peace

Mugen P28 program runs good (stronger than with the stock P72) but dumps more fuel (runs rich) and leaves your IABs open. Only thing.... VTEC coming on at 5700 is too late for a stock B18C. If you drop it (with either a VTEC controller or custom ECU program) to around 4900-5000 rpms, it'll have good mid-range torque and pull hard in VTEC. Otherwise, with the 5700 rpm VTEC x-over, the stock B18C lags around the 4500-5500 rpm range.

Will this hurt anything? Shouldn't. I know 3 people who have (or are still) running this setup on their stock B18C motors.

Damn that's tight... I didn't know they had programs that would just keep the IAB's open... I would just take out the entire secondary plate if you run that ECU... There's no reason if they are gonna be open the whole time.. Laterz

yes, its a HUGE difference, I can reprogram it wiht any VTEC crossover, any rev limiter and modify maps based on your mods for you, all you have to do is PM me.
