chipping question
ok,my friend just bought a crx with a d15b in it. It's supposed to have an 8200 rpm redline according to what I read on a website that sells the motor. His redline's at 6800 rpm's but the block does say d15b~ so wrong ecu, my question is, could it just be chipped? and how much would that cost roughly (j/w what a ball park figure would be).... if anyone could lmk I'd apprecaite it, thanx

ok I will... but I have one more question as well... would there be n e benefits as far as chipping a motor with only I/H/E? I mean are there ways to get more power out of it,and if so, how much? all I wanna do is run my b16a in my crx with I/H/E (want to keep it as reliable as possible) but if it'll give me more power I'd also like to chip it... I just dunno what it would do for me so figured I'd ask

ECU
ECU is a 'small case' P08 (this will run with single wire 02 as thats what VTi/VXi came with). VTEC point is at 4800-5200 rpm (4800 @ WOT), while the rev limit (fuel cut off) is at around 7350 rpm. P08 has fairly leaner maps with more timing advance then the P28/D16Z6 ecu A USDM p28 can be used longest 4-wire 02 is used and you don't mind the slight performance decrease. But no worries it can be easily chipped to P08 specs.

gotcha~ thanx... I'll end up researching this a lil more but figured TR was the best place to start... I'd like to see how costly it would be to up the compression a lil and upgrade the valve train in my motor and possibly THEN do the chipping but I'd aslo like to see how reliable the motor will stay~
