Yeah if it doesnt have the IAB solenoid with it I will just go get one cause then there would be no point in the pt6 ecu really. Yeah I think they said it was through the vacume line. Lol This is going to be a lot more trouble than I thought but It will be worth it. I get more power plus a better engine and I wont burn oil or smoke anymore.

If your current engine is burning oil and smoking, etc. Then you will definitely notice a difference in performance with a healthier engine, not to mention a better engine.Originally posted by Honda Power View Post

Make sure you get a new waterpump, timingbelt and idle tensioner atleast on that engine before swapping it in.Comment

Alright thanx guys for everything! I will be back on here sometime soon. Lol probable with more questions. But im going to bed I have to get up early in the morning to go get the motor. Ill be sure to check for the IAB when I get it. I hope to god its there though. Alright Thnx guys you both helped alot ttyl.Comment

Yes, before you even think about putting it in, I'd recommend replacing all external engine seals, plugs, wires, and doing a full timing belt/water pump procedure.Originally posted by kirk90 View Post

Ok I got the ecu with the motor but here is r the number off of it... 37820-pt3-a55 can anyone tell me for sure if it came from an ex or lx 92-93? I looked around and everything I found said it was from an lx which means I wont have the slightly bigger came or the IABs dont it?Comment

hi the #37820-pt3-a55 should be 37820-pt6-a55 i got a ecu of a 90 ex it was a pt3 ...the cam on the f22a6 is better ..im` putting the a6 intake on my a1
the a6 intake has 8 holes instead of 4
this is what im` putting on mine
also read this http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=88154 it sounds like you have a f22a1 or a f22a4 both are goodLast edited by Teddy; 03-09-2010, 01:28 AM.

The pt3 ecu is from the lx and ex. What is stamped on the engine block? f22A1 or F22a4?Comment

You need a PT6 to run a F22A6.R.I.P. Veronica - JDM F20A swapped 2.0 Si wannabe.Comment

Is the pt3 ECU any good My new motor came with it? its the f22a6 motorComment

PT3 is no good for that engine. To my knowledge it will not operate the IABs, nor does it have the aggressive tune to compensate for the A6 camshaft. So no, you need a PT6.Originally posted by Honda Power View Post

It says f22a6 on the block I think I will have to check tomorrow to make sure. But yet like I said the ecu says pt3 that came with it.Comment
-
IDK I need to check to see if it has the IAB system on the intake tomorrow too. If not then Im not going to worry about it and just us my ecu. If it does I gues Im going down to find a pt6 ecu sometime then.Comment

Yeah I took everything apart today on the motor and the intake is just like mine on the f22a1. But yet the block says f22a6 on this new motor. also the pistons where labeled pt3 on the top of them. This is so confusing... I thought the f22a6 pistons should say pt6 on them and the intake should have the 8 holes. It seems like the intake has been changed, but how does that explain the pt3 makes on the pistons. IDK can someone please explain to me whats going on?Comment

from what i`v read the a6 has tighter valve springs and a different cam, but the same block and head, and the a6 ecu works with the cam and does the iab`s plate too and no speed limiter on it ,the cam is got a different # on it ,wish i knew the # of the a6 and the a1-a4 ,sorry ,but i saw it listed once on here ,also the a6 has a oil cooler w/water where the oil filter goes onLast edited by Teddy; 03-10-2010, 04:01 AM.Comment
