OMG lol what a funny read this thread has become. Lets keep the personal attacks to PMs can we![]()
How many of you over the past 6 pages have actually had real experience with a Fully programmed stand alone ECU ??? Too much talk gents!
Back on topic..
To answer the first post made in this thread, I ran a Mugen N1 ECU on my B18cR engine and it ran well. The only issues were that it disabled the Aircon, needed more fuel pressure in VTEC and you have to get a new fuel pump.
Now the gains at top end were very negligable - about a 5hp gain but thru the midrange there were gains around 20HP.
I tested this ECU vs the stock OBD2 ECU on the track and it responded beautifully. VTEC kicked in at 4100rpm and it continued to pull hard around the track with LOADS of midrange. The standard ECU was difficult to use on the circuit because when VTEC kicked in it would send the wheels spinning when you didnt want it too. Yes I also had LSD.
So overall, whats more imprtant Aircon or a gutsy car with lots more pull thru the rev range.
Here is a dyno graph to look at![]()
Redline = B16A2 OBD2 ECU
Blue Line = Mugen N1 Race Only ECU
Green Line = JDM ITR ECU
