DOHC crx VTEC is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Re: New to the turbo game.......

I would say AEM EMS if you're really serious.........and turbo SOHC...nothing wrong with that. There have been SOHC monsters out there

Im not really sure if you need to convert for AEM EMS or not but that management system is really reputable

I dont plan on getting too serious. I just plan on getting a basic setup and running about 8 or 9 psi.

OK what about injectors? Should 300cc do the trick for 8 to 9 psi ?

Uberdata is pretty stable now, a lot of stuff is fixed. There are other programs out there too.. Hondata is nice but not that much better than some of the free programs to justify the price. It's well supported though, and a proven performer.
