hey man.. i'm using 98 oct at the moment. No CEL light as yet..and i don't have an ECU scanner thing.

It's factory tuned at the moment and power/torque seems to go very well after an ECU reset.

I just hate how OBDII over-compensates for mother earth's survival.....bah!

98's good enough... hmmm... not too familiar with Hondas let's wait for the Honda guys to answer you on that one

Sorry couldn't be of much help there

light weight flywheel,.... and what is to light

ok,.... say the engine is fully built,
forge pistons,.... forge rods,.... knife edge crankshaft (balanced),..... complete valve kit,.... stage 2 camshaft,.... cam gears,.... pulleys,...

i wanna upgrade my flywheel,..... but still have power on up hill climb,....
on up hill climb,.... i would lose power with a flywheel that is to light,.....
so what is to light?

i was thinkin' about getting a TODA Ultra Light CrMo Flywheel : 9.68 Lbs

im just researching about this so that i can send the list of the parts i need to my shop.

i registered at www.awto.tk so that i can communicate with people that know about this,...... i dont think they aproved me,.... coz i can never get itor log in

@ Zero null: I suggest you try going to AUto Mechanica (back of the old White Gold Bldg.). The owner there was the pioneer chief mechanic of Honda. He's quite knowledgeable with ECUs...

Yup, usrolla is right, the guy is in NZ (not US) hehe how i wish i was there also hahaha

Anyway, might help visiting some Honda forums since the euro R isn't that common here in the Phils.

hey guys, i'm sick and tired of resetting my ECU. The only thing I've done so far on it was removed the intake resonator but the damn OBDIIb keeps farcking things up for me. I'm fine when the engine is cold..lots of power...but as soon as it's warmed up then I feel a blank spot around 4krpm. Power and torque come back up when I hit VTEC at 5~5.5K rpm up until 7.5k rpm. soon as i shift gears it lands back in 4k zone where the torque is gone again until the VTEC kicks in at 5.5k rpm. If i reset the ECU (unplug batt for 30mins) then everything goes fine again..


i'm just too tired of doing this routine every 2 or so weeks. Is there any way to chip an OBDIIb? or am i better off swapping for an OBDI?

Check your MAP sensor. its the small balck sensor on top of your Throttle Body. You might have move it when you done something to your intake. Octane rating will not throw a cel code. try to search from www.hondaclub.com.ph. i think there's a discussion ther about proper MAP sensor reading.
