Greenblurr93 10-07-2007, 07:19 PM before you do anything you need to do A LOT more research, and figure out exactly what your goals are, youll also need a good tune with a N/A motor as well as a F/I motor Lou09 10-08-2007, 01:06 PM ok i really want to go with the turbo but i have a question how am I going to program my ECU i spoke to the guys at hondata they told that I need to put the car on dyno or else there is no way to program it so what can I do? CivicSpoon 10-08-2007, 02:47 PM Do what everyone else does. Either drive the car to a tuner, using a base map (I'd advise against this). Or get your car towed to a tuner. Here's a link to a thread on Honda-Tech.com that has a list of tuners for each state: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread/1347699 Massachusetts really isn't that big of a state, so one of those places shouldn't be too far from you. I live directly in the center of NY state, and some people around here travel all the way down to eastern Pennsylvania to get it tuned by Evan's Tuning; which is just about 200 miles away (there are other places closer, but they're known for doing a great job). But 200 miles is a further trip than going from 1 corner of Mass to the other. If you're serious about performance, you need to get it tuned; for 2 reasons. For one, you need the car to be reliable so you don't destroy your engine and have to start all over again. And two, it's pointless to spend a bunch of $ if you're not going to get the most out of it, and without a tune it's not going to be at it's full potential. As the sayings go "you got to pay to play" & "do it right or don't do it at all". There is no easy way out, like some kind of be all, end all chip that you can just throw in; it has to be done right. Greenblurr93 10-08-2007, 07:25 PM I do some tuning in Mass.... PM me and I can help you maybe Ascendance 12-19-2007, 10:27 PM lol, or do what my mate who works for Hondata does, tunes it while you drive. :D Very cool. Greenblurr93 12-20-2007, 09:52 AM thats what i do... its called street tuning... Schister66 12-20-2007, 03:53 PM NA is an acronym for "lost potential" Boost is the only way to go.... www.honda-tech.com/zeroforum/16 vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
