Re: P28 on a B18C1
I figured the same, but all the shops I called said it needed to be tuned. I don't feel the need for a tune, I'd just be at peace with it running on a GSR basemap instead of a D16z6

Re: P28 on a B18C1
When the shop finished the swap I figured that they had given me the P72 ECU from the donor car and to my suprise, they didn't. If I did have the OBD1 ECU form the GS-R will it still be compatible with my cruise control and everything else the runs off of my p28??

Re: P28 on a B18C1
If you don't mind, could you be a lottle more specific about my valves. I'm just wondering how different a different ecu will effect my valves. Thanks.
No, I'm not racing. I've done a few pulls getting off of work and stuff but I DON'T rag on my car at all.

I don't see how the stock two stage intake manifold is working properly with the P28.
Pretty sure your motor is running in less than optimal condition.
In the long run, the programmable aftermarket ECU is the way to go.

Re: P28 on a B18C1
a base map is kind of like a 1 dimensional thing vs a stock ecu which is like a 3 dimensional thing, it only does what you tell it to do, it does not make adjustments, or add fuel or timing, it would be a waste of time and money to buy a p28, then have it chipped and have a base map put on it.

By the way, a 1 dimensional map isn't a map at all. Maps are at least two dimensional, because they're a table/matrix. If it's one dimensional, it's a vector.
