Looking to get one of these. I knwo you need the two-step rev control box, and the soft touch controller. MSD doesn't have any wiring or installaion guides.

Anyone here using this? :driving:

better ways to do it for way cheaper

pslsnakes

I talked with a guy who can chip my ecu for $75. He said he's certified by honda, and has his own shop. He was saying something about changing vtec engagment to a different rpm, rather than 6k, launch control, and the like.

The MSD combo is like $300, maybe more, not too sure.

Also not sure if I want some guy playing with my ecu. There's a '96 coupe at the local slavage yard, with the same motor as me, and a manual trans. Would it be worth it to get the ecu from that car for a few bucks? This way I will have my stock one incase the guy messes up the donor ecu.

What other ways are you talking about? Please elaborate..

can't chip obd2, if you have stock cam it's retarded to change vtec engagement, what do you have done to require this modification?

I have a Zex cam. I got it for cheap, and decided what the hell. I really don't care about changing vtec, just want launch control.

Civic2Scooby

is your car an automatic? and what else other than a zex cam do you have?

The car is a 5 speed. The cam, had a generic cheapo short ram, but got an Injen cold air intake from a guy on Craig's List today for $50, Megan header and test pipe. I also want to add a 50 shot of nitrous just for shits and kicks for the track.

I read thru a whole turbo build and figured that it's something that I can do on a week end, and not as hard as I figured. But that won't happen until I find everything and piece is together.

First before any of that, I'm doing suspension. I ordered Skunk2 rear lower control arms, front and rear camber kits, and Koni Yellow struts earlier today. Going to get a front and rear sway bar next week, and some other misc. things.
