Ecu tuning help ?

[1996ek1]

Hey, im abit confused about ECU's atm, are they retunable or not? Im planning to swap to the P28 ECU for a 'mini-me conversion' and i always thought that factory ECU's were unprogrammable, but everyone is always saying P28 are a good choice due to easy programability etc.

So, is the actual P28 ECU reprogrammable, or am i totally wrong here?


Thanks

You can get it chipped to run Altered maps. Such as Crome, Uberdata, hondalog.

Or you can add aditional addon management like vafc/safc or hondata.

Got my tuning kit w00t.
now i have a backup obd1 ecu, LC-1 Wideband o2 and Osterich.
had the chip burner for a while but it looked lonely.

And innovate LC-1 Wideband.

Is that a usdm or a jdm ecu. is doing the jdm's the same as the usdm's but with a smaller ecu?

makes no difference as its a chipped obd1 ecu. so i can run most maps.
