inexpensive performance chips
http://www.efficientexperts.com/virt...superautoparts
this place i guess buys mugen chips and the like and decodes them and makes their own. they range from $35-40. my bro bought one for his crx and it gave him 6+ hp when he tested it with his g-tech. i got one for my 95 civic ex (d16z6) with ecu p28. it was a bitch installing it caus it came with absolutely no instructions. i called my bro to see how he did his. on integra and crx ecu's the performance chip replaces an already existing chip in the ecu, all he had to do was take out the factory stock chip and put in the performance one and he was all set. not so for the civic ecu. i had no idea what to do, there was a place on the circut board where it would fit but there was no chip already there. so i found a guy on ebay that sells similar chips and he sent me directions on the install. i had to put in the chip into the empty spot on the ecu and then add this other integrated circut chip and a resistor and a wire in another place. but stupid me didn't read the directions correctly and took out another chip i needed and broke it in the process. my car didn't run at all and i'm S.O.L thinking i now need to buy a new ecu but i found on radioshack.com they have the chip i destroyed and the other one i needed that didnt come with the performance chip. after 3 days of my car not working i got the chips and put em in and everything worked ok. thank god! i don't know how much hp i got from all this mess but i can deffinately feel more power. probably got btw 3-6+ hp. v-tec kicks in now at 5000 rpm too, so that is way cool. it also has redline at 9200 i think but im not gonna find out. so anyway $35 a good investment but you gotta know what you are doing or you'll fuck up your ecu and need a new one. if any of you decide to get a civic chip you can hit me up for the instructions. peace Last edited by Quetzolcotl; 01-05-2002 at 01:11 AM.

ecu chip instructions
hey ,
I was wondering if I could hit you up for those installation instructions for that honda civic ECU. I bought one from Ebay, and I am not sure if the instructions are going to come with it. If you could post them or e-mail them to me that would be great. Thanks a lot!
