It could be running a AFC-hack, in which it wouldn't have a Blue Box. Maybe it has Hondata or AEM EMS? Its probably a AFC-hack though.

look under the passenger side front carpet, where the ecu is
if its there, you should see some wires coming off the wireing harness to the ecu

its 95 obd1 gsr ecu

pretty sure no hondata, it would be next to ecu if

i do have vafc though.. pretty sure they are 310 cc... but not 100% not sure on the size of the injectors...

defintly wires coming out of the ecu....but some are vafc and some probably blue box...

but where is the box... im wondering if its functioning or not.

pull back your carpet where the passengers feet are. Follow all of the wires that are not from the stock harnes. Some should go to the AFC and the ones that dont should lead you to the Blue Box. Why dont you just ask the shop you bought it from where its at? of if it even has it?

i have the weirdest feeling its not installed the wires in that pic dont look that long and there a lot of them....

i just looked, all i saw were the wires going to the vafc...

where do you normally mount the blue box.. i looked under car, under hood, under carpet passenger side... i really dont think its there.. whoops!

if... if its not installed.. then i'd be running lean and i should up the vafc to like what +36 or ...

ill keep you posted...

oh..

can you understand laziness? :drunk:

not necessarily. If you dont have the blue box installed, meaning it was never used when the turbo kit was put on, then theres no need for it because you have the AFC controlling your fuel management. If your car is running fine, then that means everything is setup fine, no need to really worry about running lean.

Just call the shop that you bought it from and ask them what your Fuel/Engine management setup is.
