Questions before I buy

[zeroek]

I'm getting some confusion on what to buy for my car. Here is what I have and what I want. I have a 1997 Honda civic DX with a B16A3 engine. Right now it's being ran off a P2T 00 SI ecu and 00si Engine harness. Meaning the chasis harness has been modified to work with the 00 Si engine harness. With the harness and ECU being OBD2B and the rest of the car being OBD2A would I need the ECU and conversion from OBD2B to OBD1. And now for the rest of the Question. Since this is a pretty much stock b16 engine do I need the p28 ? Here soon I'm going to put a turbo kit on this engine and want something to tune it. Well can I tune with the S200? Or should I save up for the S300? And if I do get either one what else do I need? Do I have to buy programs? If you were in my situation what all would you get and about how much would it price out to? Thanks

To use a Hondata system, you must use a compatible OBD1 ecu from the list at http://www.hondata.com/ecus.html. You can then use the s100, s200 or s300. I would go with teh s300 if it were me. There is a great deal of information on the Hondata website about these systems, including price and features. Hondata does offer OBD1 P28's with built in adapterharnesses for OBD2 (http://www.hondata.com/accessories.html).

Yeah. ma if it was me i would get the s300 as it offers the most options. i've used tham all s100,s200,s300. and man i'm here to tell ya the s300 is the best bang for the buck. it can be live updated while your driving down the road via a labtop. configurations can be found any numbers of places but it does come with a pretty wide arrangment of premades for most applications to get you going and then you can start beefin them up to your needs just by changing values. it's really full of great info in the help menu's that comes with it. all you need is your adapter for your wiring and the s300 (which can be bought two way either preassembled or as a kit you put in your own computer but it does have to be a odb1 ecu.) With a lil bit of soldering skill it's not really hard to. OR maybe you have a friend who's good at it you trust. Warning tho if it's done wrong and used it can fry you ecu so. This would get you up and running. how ever if you want to use the full functions of the autotune funtions of the s300 you will need a lambda sensor.
