Re: Just Finished Installing my Turbo!

The tuner definitely is not experienced with Hondas, but if your dads set on listening to him there's nothing you can do I guess. Go on any forum, see the guys truly pushing the limits of Hondas, they'll all recommend k-pro for a street car. That includes other tuners and shop owners.

As far as AC goes, the option exists within EMS and can be turned on when you go for the tune (more of the tuners time), but it's glitchy on Hondas. Evidence that I know what I'm talking about > https://www.civicforums.com/forums/7...aem-ems-c.html

Re: Just Finished Installing my Turbo!

On the topic of K-Pro. When you send in a donor ECU, is one ECU preferred over another? Like the ECU from an RSX-S over an SI? Or is it all the same at the end of the day?

Re: Just Finished Installing my Turbo!

All the same I believe, I'd have to check to confirm, the following ecus can be used.


2002-2004 RSX Base 5 speed (PND -A0 ECU)
2002-2004 RSX Type S 6 speed (PRB-A0 - ECU)
2002-2004 CRV 5 speed (PPA-A0 ECU)
2002-2005 Japanese DC5 Integra Type R (PRC ECU)
2003-2005 Japanese Civic Type R (PRD ECU)
2002-2005 Civic Si (PNF ECU)

Re: Just Finished Installing my Turbo!

I have some RSX injectors, tuner said that they might be close to maxed out @ 7-8 PSI, what do you all think? What do you suggest? Getting some big ones like 400cc+?

Re: Just Finished Installing my Turbo!

OEM RDX injectors, they have a factory turbo k23 and 410cc output, they should do the job until you push the boost higher.
