johngreen537 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Worth bearing in mind the B18C difference mate...B16 engined cars, don't have the IAB opening up, and have VTEC engaging at 5600 RPM.B18 engined cars, have IABs, VTEC engages around 4500 then the IAB's open at 5800(ish) RPM.So the B18 is more subtle and progressive than the B16. B16 you hear the BIG BANG of power at 5600 rpm, where the B18 you get a smaller bang at 4500, then another at 5800.But x2 on what Ryan said, get the ECu sorted to make the most of your new internals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVEMB2 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 you've done all that and not touched the ecu?your air fuel mixture will be all over the place. Get the car mapped to go with the mods you havex2 the ecu will still be mapped for the stanard cams ect 1"£££$££"!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civicturbo79 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 To get the best out of any mods on your car you need to get the ecu on the car mapped . if you have changed cams you will 100% need to get it mapped to get the best out of them .
