INFORMATION Integra Help

i have a 90 integra with a 93 gsr tranny and a 97 b18b engine with 2 1/2 exaust, cold air intake, what i want to know his if my ecu is ok for this setup or i will be better with a 92 or 97 ecu? and what i should do next for a have a wonderfull setup i don’t wanna put nos or either turbo on my car i want a powerfull non-vtec engine

I think all LS ECUs are pretty much the same so I’d stick with the one you’ve got. Most people with intake and exhaust get a header to round out the “free breathing” mods. Then, I’m no professional tuner but I might try cam gears and cams after that. Talk to a pro.

i would stick with what you got… the 90 ECU… that way it stays pre OBD so theres less sensors to **** with

a 92+ ecu will NOT work in your car. Your car is 90, all 89-91 honda’s are non obd (aka obd0). 92-95 is obd1 and 96+ is obd2. I know that sounds like a bunch of strange terminology… but don’t worry about that. All you need to know is that the ecu’s aren’t compatable.

your stock ecu is gonna be fine. When you start modding more it would be a good idea to upgrade your ecu though. And by upgrade i mean have a new chip put in it. Many places program new EPROM “chips” that get installed in the ecu and give better fuel/spark curves and change the rev limit. But like i said, you’ll be fine for now.

for your next upgrade i’d suggest cams, valve springs, retainers, and cam gears. Then a header, fuel pressure regulator and some tuning.

don’t forget a hi-flow cat or testpipe. header & exhaust will not perform like they could when flow is constricted by a stock cat.

but don’t give him the impression that i/h/e (w/ or w/o test pipe) will give him any decent mods. i/h/e won’t perform like they could without other mods too.

you can’t really think of i/h/e as power adders, but instead as prepping the engine for more hefty mods like raising the compression and better cams. this is less true for vtec engines though, because they seem to respond to i/h/e better than non vtec ones.

hmmm

i already have a tespipe
