H23 IM swap - what ecu?

[Chaos325]

Okay I'm gonna install my h23 intake manifold on my 91 f22a1 this weekend. I picked up P06 for dirt cheap and ordered a chipping kit. Can I run a chipped p06 on my engine or do I have to use a P14 to control the black box for the secondary runners?

I want a chipped p06 to run a modified map I've compiled.

[NAiL05]

You can use the p06 or the stock ex pt6 should work also.

I got a pt6 and it works just fine.

So we have to use EX ecu to make it work?

[LinX]

EX would be easiest to find and its a stock ecu for our cars. Installing the manifold and wiring it through the ecu will make them operate like OEM ; butterflies open @4700RPM like they're supposed to.

use any ecu you want; pt3, p12, pt6, p06. a chipped and tuned p06 would be the best choice.

the pt3 and p12 will not open your butterflies as they were meant to be opened(by the ecu rpm signal). so, if you have the iab box, it will be pretty much useless and you will have to settle for them opening with vac.

with a pt6 or p06(iabs can be added to it when chipped) the ecu controls when the iabs open and close.

Okay thats what I wanted to hear! So is there like some code that I have to add to my custom map? Or is it hardware changes?

I've got a 90 DX, which I guess means I have an F22A1, correct? What ECU would I have??

Also someone mentioned the P06, I looked it up and that's a 92-95 Civic ECU!? That can't be right!

So would an H23 mani work right with my stock ECU? Or would I also have to do something about the butterflies?

[Torqstr]

yeah I'm totally cool with the vacuum activated butterflies. I may still get a P06 anyway though just so I can chip it.

Does the P06 plug into our harness though? And will it cause any issues?

Also, I'm assuming that the concensus is that for power the H23 is definately better than going to the A6 manifold, correct? I mean if it's only a 5% difference or something I'll just go with the A6 mani, since it's easier to find.

can you guys please read the ecu tuning thread? i have a few threads on there explaining everything on chipping.

[d112crzy]

thanks noob

hurry up and buy my p06 damnit!!

[Chaos325]

what about a vaccumm switch if it exist??? kind of like a manual boost controller but only with on off option...
