Hi,
I just joined the forum and I am new to honda engines, but not new to engine swaps (did the Rx7 LS1 swap).
I picked up a D16 vtec engine pretty cheap. But the engine does not have an ECU. I was considering building the motor... but I think I am going to leave it pretty stock for now, I will probably want to add a small turbo setup but nothing requiring upgrades of the internals.
But I need an ECU.
What ECU should I be looking for for this D16z6 if I want to add a mild turbo setup? I am interested in options and pros/cons.
I can put together my own megasquirt but that seems excessive for this. If I need more power I will go to the B series motor like people are suggesting. But this is going into a 1963 corvair as a rear engine upgrade from the 80hp flat 6 cylinder.
Thanks!
