in reguards to the exhaust manifold, that's one main reason why i want to go T3 because T3 manifolds are so common and that way i won't need to fabricate an adaptor plate.
I'd like it to be decently streetable, i can live with getting full boost at 4K because if i get it an earlier than that i'm gonna get myself into trouble. Also when i first set it up i probably won't have a boost controller. I'll just wastegate it down somewhere around 3 or 4 psi, and then later on i'll use a manual boost controller to raise it to 5-7. And probably around a month or two later, i'll get the greddy profec B, and jack the boost up to 8 or 10.
The vtec thing i was getting at is basically, what's the point in changing the vtec activation point on an engine with a stock camshaft? I was under the impression that honda optimizes the changeover point for the stock cams, and unless you're running aftermarket cams with different grinds, that you probably wouldn't need to change the activation point. Unless of course, i want to be cool, and get the vafc anyway, and set my vtec point higher, that way once it kicks in, and i'm in boost it'd be like a 20 hp gain
I've heard a lot about the p28 ecu. Basically, where the hell do i find one, and how much is the ecu and a hondata set up gonna ring me? also if i just went with say, the hondata s100b, then i wouldn't need to run the s/vafc, right? since they'd optimize the chip for my setup? another thing, how would i change it later on when i want to up my boost?
Another thing, if i do go with the hondata setup, how do i get around the map sensor throwing a cel? is it programed in?
