just finished 94 del with d16(will post pics later) lambo,cold air,hi flow cat,hi flow muffler,invader body kit and resister on air temp . much better performace than was stock(wife ran 17.55 in quarter,1sec reac time). anything more I can do without going to turbo to get a little more ?

liked so much bought a 95 with b18c1,yeah its fast,but ugly. how do I run codes?

theres a plug under the dash on the passenger side. run a jumper wire and watch the cel and count flashes. vtec solenoid is on the back of the head on the left side.
 
nope,wasnt green by ecu, found yellow two prong lead behind glove box jumped and nothing,turned ignition on and off and nothing
 
actually i do have a hayes manual, doubt it has any thing on the b18 but for ecu and codes it should, thanks for helping me relize my stupidity.

Hate to flame, but did you ever drive the car before the modifications?

Chances are its slower now if anything...

my buddy just ran a 16.5 with a stock CRX SI *D16A6* with 225K on the clock.

Assuming you have a Z6, you have a 25hp advantage over that, similar tranny, and only maybe 200lbs more weight.

My 8 valve CX ran an 18.5 and has the worst gearing on the planet.

Sounds like mega rice-a-roni to me. I didn't know anybody still did the vader-style body kits...those were popular like 8 years ago when the Fast & the Furious came out.

And by the way, those resistor chip mods are junk. All they do is F up your engine. If you want to mess with your A/F ratios then go to a tuning shop and get someone to actually tune your car.
 
nice comments but like i said my wife ran a 17.55,when i ran it ran 7000 rpms in first second and third until i caught traction and she only beat my time by a few tenths.
as for the resistor chip , why do you think im asking for comments on advice ,not haters!
the performance has definatly improved over stock. and if you know about a tuning shop around N.O. louisiana let me know

If you didn't have traction untill 3rd gear in a D16Z6 You must have gone to the WORST track on the face of the earth, or have NO idea how to drive a stick-shift car. That and Z6's redline at 7200, and if you are at a track you might as well take it to redline.

Do yourself a favor, Take off EVERYTHING you listed that you had on that car and throw it away *Air resister, Lambo door, INVADER kit Jeez...*, send your ECU to phearable.net to get a decent tune that won't blow up your engine like your 'power' mod will.

c_champagne happened to join a forum where people are really particular about their hondas. ah... my suggestion for c_champagne is to spend a couple of weeks reading the forum about issues related to c_champagne's car, its engine, and what people are doing to make this a more enjoyable car to drive, not to mention countless of threads about how to make this car really fast in a straight line. have good fun! :)
