Do you already have a chipped ECU and a burner? Wideband?

What boost level are you planning on running? If over 9 psi you will need a 2 bar map sensor.

Bah, says who? I've seen plenty of people running over 10psi with TurboEdit. I was running 15psi with the stock MAP. Most people who run TurboEdit are running over 10psi with the stock MAP.

I thought you need a 2 bar over 9 psi. If not then what is the limit of the stock map sensor?

The limit of the stock MAP is around ~10, but if you're running over that you just richen up the last columns in the fuel maps to adjust.

Yep, I ran 13psi on my stock MAP sensor. I wont claim it is the smartest thing in the world to do and I wouldnt recommend it if you dont have a wideband installed when you do it...but it is possible.

88HF-T, I you need your ECU chipped for TurboEdit, Im your man 8)

Good luck!

Smartest thing to do? Running out of the MAP sensor range is downright stupid.

Some would say boosting on a stock Honda motor with open deck, cast pistons, and pencil dick rods is pretty stupid too, but we're all guilty of that. :P

So are answers to questions that have no point or actual answer.

If you understand how the ECU works and how to tune a motor, the only thing you have to worry about is blowing out the MAP diaphragm and even then I dont think your engine will blow-up if that happens.

i would imagine you'd get a map cel and you're car would run like ass. back to the stock map question, the stock honda map is actually 1.75 bar and is limited for tuning up to about 10.8-11 psi, but i too have run up to 15 psi with no problems.

Stock OBD0 MAP is only good to 9.6psi....supposedly

i have a 89HF could i run uberdata or turbo edit on my current ecu or would that we pointless? does UD or TE even support HF ecus?

Chris Harris 01-21-2005 11:39 PM

Re:good management?
 
What ECU is in the HF? Its a PM8 or something right?

Well, its supported for any OBD0 ECU (cept PR3/PW0) but chipping that HF ECU is another story.

Best bet is to find a PM6 ECU with an external eprom and chip that and run TurboEdit.
