| A good friend of mine blew up his EF last week (shifted from 4th to 1st on the highway). He needed a commuter so I sold him my old B16A swap that was in my CRX.

| P06 ECU converted to P28 then chipped for a P30. Knock sensor is deleted on the chip. It ran great on the donor car. |

| Turned out to be bad gas. We drained the tank, filled up on premium and put in some injector cleaner. The powerband still doesn't feel right so were doing the fuel filter tomorrow. |
