Thinking of getting chipped (h22a) p28...

[TheTempest]

Hey,

I've got a JDM H22a 5spd and i'm thinking of changing out my stock P13 for a chipped P28. Basicly to have a stock H22a fuel map, no EGR/KS. One thing I'd like to eventually get setup, though I dont know how, is to get a live LCD output in my dash, near radio...of coool shit like RPM, A:F ratio and stuff like that. Does that have to do with a "socketed" ECU or what? can anyone tell me about this stuff?


Thanks

just buy a damn vafc and mount it near your radio............problem solved. As far as the chipped ECU, just buy a damn vafc and tune it to your specifications.

true if u only want a stock fuel map and such on a socketed ECU just spend the money on a VAFC and have someone send u their setting for a similar setup and u will have made a little power over stock and such...

but does that take out EGR/KS? I didn't think that it did...I'm also trying to bypass two CEL's here

My buddy writes custom programs for Honda ECUs. Where abouts are you?? He chipped my P28 and the car felt like it woke up. No more annoying JDM speed limiter either... 180km/h? That's where the fun begins.

The Vafc will do nothing for the ks and egr cels. Dont waste your time with it.

Yeah what shonuff said lol.

well..there is a major power loss because of CEL's esp. from 2->4 on the tac...i really want to get those fixed, cheap...

Fix the problems and then swap the ECU's. What exactly are your DTC's?

[TheTempest]

they DTC's are 12/23 (EGR/KS). I can't get the EGR to work for shits, and the KS has never worked, so this go around i didn't even bother running the wire to the wiring harness...
