projekteg just chipped my ecu with a basemap. He also told me to buy ngk spark plugs and gap them at .28 so idk what to do. if i have to ship my ecu back ill be pissed. He said it worked in his car so idk whats going on.

 

I'm sure its fine. It may just be the chip.

 

Get yourself a cheap burner

 

91hbvtec is my brother and i have been doing all the work on his car. When the computer came back i unwired the safc i spliced the map sensor wire that needs to be cut to use the afc back together and i completly removed all the wiring associated with it. I went back through and rechecked all the sensors on the car including the iacv. All the sensors were within the specifications. I removed the iacv and checked to make sure that it was clean and working correctly. Finally i got the stock ecu from my 95 civic ex and swapped it into my brothers car. I know it would throw a cel if it went under boost, but i just wanted to see if it would at least idle. With my ecu in his car it idled nice and smooth. It was a little rich which is to be expected because of the 450cc injectors. So it leds me to belive that the chip that was installed in the ecu is not correct.

 

So reburn it. Its not a big deal.

 

i dont have a burner or nething so i have to have projekteg send me another one

 

Damn, that has to suck for Kevin.

All you guys that are buying chips and ---- really need to invest in a burner. You can find them on Egay for like $45. It's a small price to pay to be able to change settings. It is still a "basemap" no matter how many times you send the chip back and forth. You really need to tune it according.

Well put Sir Boost

 

pm me your info again and we'll try another map. when i 'test' an ecu, i plug the ecu in to my car with a chip for my engine and injectors, to make sure it runs the car fine, then, i make your chip, put it in the ecu and plug the ecu in and turn the ign. to 'acc' to make sure there are no cel's, i don't actually start the car b/c i have a totally different set up/injectors. the ecu is good, and the chip is good, i guess your car just doesn't like the map :P i'll see what i can do with another map, but this is the same base map i use on all similar set ups with no problems, but we can try again. but yes, your car should at least idle fine and be drivable, may not run that great b/c like boost said, it is just a basemap and it will not run like stock, but it should be drivable.

 

Kevin I would be making these kids buy burners.
