Mr. Grim

I just got a 95 Integra Special Edition (non-V-Tec) with a 4 speed auto trans. With the holidays I don't have the money to swap the trans. The car is needed right now anyway so taking it all apart for a swap just wont work right now. I have a type R v-tec head with all the goods that go with it (headers ,nice intake) that I would like to put on it I have from a CRX project but does any one know what ECU set up I will have to run to make the V-Tec and the auto trans to work together if at all possible.

Any Help at all would be great

I'm not sure, but I don't think you can put a vtec head on a auto.

ISP James

yes you can. chip an ecu from an automatic civic EX.

Automatic Civic Ex = P28

its spelled vtec. if you have an itr head with a valve cover shame on you. :nono:

you could try to find an ecu from a jdm auto b16. but those are few and far between. do a manual conversion and be done with it. vtec and auto = :a:

ISP James

by the way, im going to recommend against just putting said head on your current bottom end.

you will need to do some extra work to make this a reliable and powerful engine. thus, plan on having some downtime.

Mr. Grim

I have the Type R pistons and Rods, ARP bolts as well I would be adding them part at the same time. I could do all that in a week end. The swap on the trans I have never done and will have to run down the parts.

What chip would I need to put in the P28 ECU to work with theType R head

ISP James

you cant use the ITR rods with an LS crank.

Snoopy

have a p28 chipped to run dohc specs then get hondata or something of the like to tune.

Mr. Grim

So I will have to put the Piston on the old rods?
