basically, i built my d16a1 motor for my 87 crx dx with a ton of help with a couple friends. im pretty much afraid of tuning turbo edit myself just because i don't really understand the whole program. i don't want to blow the damn thing up just because all of the money i dumped into it. should i try to find local help around King of Prussia, PA, or should i just go to evans tuning to get it done? can anyone around here help me? i chipped my pm6 ecu with datalogging capability via parts from chromes website and also bought a plx-m300.

i still have a couple weeks until i have the motor in the car, and it still has to go through break in. i will pay if the person knows what they are doing.
anyways, after a year of hard work, im stoked that this damn thing is almost done, and hopefully i can take it to maple grove before it closes...

that's one sick setup in that chassis. me and my bro have an 86 crx and was thinking of doing a similar setup with a b18a1.

Evans doesnt tune TurboEdit as far as I know...

I'm not terribly far from King of Prussia, maybe 2 hours give or take and I have been tuning TE for a while, but you may be better off converting to OBD1 for more options and better tunability any way.

i have owned a 1st gen crx for 5 years. the first one i was planning on doing a built ls/vtec turbo, but for money savings, i slapped a turbo on a d16a1 swap. that thing was fast as hell till the stock clutch failed and a spun a bearing due to an oil leak i didn't know about....whoops. even with the screwed clutch, i beat a 91 civic hatch w/ b16 swap and a 75-100 shot.

anyways, after it screwed up, my friends made fun of me for building a d16a1. i decided to show them that they can make power, and im hoping to beat their swapped cars....*******! haha

if i can find a decent obd1 ecu and obd1 dohc zc dizzy for a decent price, than maybe...but for now, i want to run this pig as is. pretty much already dumped enough money into it

also, since this is a completely fresh motor, i know i have to break it in. should i just drive around in low boost stock, with the hack, or break it in without the turbo?

hell! where did you get that cluster?

I'm gonna break in my d16a1 motor with a small gt17 @ low boost for 500 miles with my xenocron basemap . Gonna have chris tune it once its broken in. I'm working on a OBD1 conversion myself for later with the t28.
