Which Ecu should i use on a b20vtec?

[DaRussian]

Just like the title says whic Ecu can i use with a b20vtec? Got a b20b block and a b16a2 head. I have a p30 ecu in it right now and its running like shit. It has no power. Idles great, all vacum lines have been fixed by a "Honda Tech" and he said that timing is dead on. Idles good but when i go to rev it up it seems to sputter and when i drive it it has no power, if i floor it from a complete stop it takes it like a minute to get t 5k rpm after 5k rpm it seems like the distributor shuts off and it just dies down but keeps running because its in gear. any help is appriciated. Also could it be because it has a older intake manifold on it? One that says fuel injection on it dont know what off of.

your ecu needs tuning

your ecu needs tuning

THIS, have it tuned ASAP...

[gerardojdm]

try a P28... P28's don't look for Knock sensor... G/L

chipped and tuned by scotty p28

[DaRussian]

ok. im going to try my buddys p28 tuned ecu in the morning, hope thats what it is

[Catnip]

LOLOL. I was thinking wiring harness when I skimmed the thread, my bad. Yes, P28 as everyone else said.

did'nt we go thru this before?
so what did the honda tech tell you?

[NoWAyItZTOMmY]

p28 aint really gonna help if it aint for your motor.

yea we've been throught this before lol its still the same thing, i didnt mess with it after that since school started and all so i took it to a honda shop.
he just fixed couple little vacum leaks, added a FPR vacum line, and checked timing, idles lower but still basically doing the same.

el oh el huh????

[Barefoot]

did this thread just get jacked

You are definately going to need to get the ECU tuned for the motor. No stock ecu is going to run it correctly, if you try your friends chipped p28 that's tuned, it is going to be tuned for his car so it definately isn't going to run your motor correctly. Good luck and hope you get it fixed soon :).

Yes I would say Tune job. But if I had to pic a ECU I would say p28.

tune it

fuel and timing curves are totally wrong using the p30. there isn't a stock ecu that will fix your issue. chipped/tuned ecu is the right way to fix it if you've fixed any and all other issues (ie: cel, sensors, etc).
