Tuning Info

I have a H22 tranny on an A1 block with an F20 DOHC head.

I need to know what ecu i should get and i was told to get a chrome chip

You should 1.get a chipped Civic ECU 2.find an experienced tuner and have them tune the car for you before you drive it

Sorry, I thought you had F20B VTEC head,

Yes you just need a chipped P06 ECU.
Explain to the seller what setup you have and they should be able to make a solid map for you.

Make sure they know what they are doing though, I know Xenocron.com is reputable

I would be careful buying things like that on Ebay,

P06 is a Civic ECU and it says that it is an F22B ECU, so they may not know what they are talking about

ait thanx

I wouldn't trust anyone that will give it a "muggen" chip.

Talk to d112crzy here on the board. He won't bullshit you.

Also, you're NOT going to get any sort of worthwhile tune in the mail. The ECU needs to be tuned FOR YOUR ENGINE SPECIFICALLY. Anything else is to be considered a basemap, and not meant to run the engine for long.


The P06 is often used to tune for an F22B, but it's not an F22B ECU. That's a P39.


Honestly, with your setup, the PT3 or PT6 would probably work just fine. You don't NEED a custom tune... and it won't be cheap unless you know someone.

i found a p14 which is for the h23 but its basically the same as the f22b, shouldnt that work

[d112crzy]

You'll need to wire in a knock sensor.

[willhholla1]

ok i no absolutely nothn abt doin tht lol

[deevergote]

Just because your head has two cams doesn't mean anything. Your ECU doesn't know how many cams you have. The PT3 or PT6 will work just fine. Otherwise, get a custom tune (which will cost you money, because you know next to nothing about this stuff).

Trust me. I'm giving you your best options.

[willhholla1]

where would u suggest getting a pt6, i have found some on ebay

[ExplodingCake]

Just get one of a junkyard lol.

[willhholla1]

wud i need the tcu also or just the ecu

[deevergote]

The PT6 comes in CB7s with the F22A6 engine, and is really only necessary if you have an intake manifold with IABs. Otherwise, the PT3 is fine. That comes in all F22A1 and F22A4 equipped cars.

The TCU doesn't matter. It just determines where your automatic transmission shifts.




Honestly, you should learn a thing or two about ECUs before you go messing with them. You clearly know nothing, and it could cause you some pretty serious problems if you screw something up.
