Turbo 01 civic
 

Im building a turbo kit for my 01 civic ex and I was wondering if the fmu and safc would be good together and also should i get new injectors?

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

yes to all of that but i would get a OBD2 to a OBD1 conversion harness and tune it on crome cause thats alot better then those POS's

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

ok so Im super new on all of this stuff what is the obd2 and obd1 harnes and tune it on crome mean? i kno im an amature my bad. but thank you for the help.

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

Read around. Crome is a fuel management system, and works on obd1 cars (92-95) but you can get a harness to work with your obd2 vehicle

But for some reason I can't get on to the site anymore. Does it work for you?

Not working for me either, Randy. It does this some times though. Give it a day or so.

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

I did some research and they dont make obd2-obd1 conversions and i cant tune with crome. so where do i go from there just run a t28 with fmu afc and injectors?

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

you cant convert 7th gen civics to obd1 because those cars dont have distributors and dont have closed loop fuel lines etc.. its possible but definately not worth. best way is to use a good piggyback like emanage ultimate if you cant afford a standalone management. You'll have some problems with the management so you better learn alot before doing the setup. if you dont use a standalone the ecu will still be there and it always will try to correct the a/f ratio to 14.7 it can add or subtract up to %20 fuel for doing that and it also datalogs these corrections and uses them later as correction factor.. so management is a bitch with the 7thgen.. there are ways to overcome this problem of course but you can learn them later by yourself. now go start reading!

Dang, that sucks for the 7th gen'ers

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

rsx type s injectors, 7~psi, greedy e-manage and a good tune will get you there. Have fun with the intercooler pipeing ;)

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

I gotta stick my head in here and sound like a retard for a sec....What do you mean by "closed loop fuel lines"...? I hate OBDII, but I still want to learn when I can.

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

it doesnt have a return line, not all obdII cars are like that but most of the newer ones are, wait till you get to play with obdII/can :6

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

alright how about i run a t25 with an fmu and a piggyback

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

you wont need an fmu and a piggyback, its one or the other. However, in your case, you cant use an fmu. They only work with return fuel systems.

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

alright so no fmu but i can use a safc? and injectors? do i need to get resignators witht he injectors?

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

you can use the safc but you cant get a consistent afr because the ecu will try to make the a/f 14.7 at partial throttle.. and it will datalog the correction it made at partial throttle and use it in wot.. there is gizmo for this that is connected to your o2 sensor and ecu and will give 14.7 signal to the ecu when you go into boost so it doesnt make corrections i dont remember the devices name search in 7thgencivic.com.. but imo you should use emanage ultimate because with the afc your ignition will be advanced around 0 vacuum and you cant even retard the stock timing from a distributor because it doent have one.. emanage ultimate can control your ignition timing so its a much better management tool..(a little pricey though)

Re: Turbo 01 civic
 

i agree.
e-manage or any other system allowiong to accurately modify your fueling and timing at any RPM or pressure.
