Hello,
I'm all new to this, please don't kill me if I say something stupid ^^"
This is my first car, I love it, but I do not know everything about cars, tuning, etc. - I'm here to learn.
There is a lot of info on the net, from mechanics, Civic fans, but I would love to get all of this info straight so my car would work properly
I drive Honda Civic VI '96 EJ EK 3-door 90HP D14A4 automatic HB (EU).
The "Automatic" part will probably be (if not surely) a bit of a "blasphemy" to a lot of people
So, on this note, my questions:
- I want to change from OBD2a to OBD1, so I can program it to work well with new parts. Where I can get: an OBD1 computer for automatic D14A4,
obd2a to obd1 adaptor for automatic gearbox? I guess there is a special one, since I've seen a shop online with this part but the description said "not meant for automatic"?
- I know that I could swap D14A4 inject manifold with 1.6 ver (along with exhaust manifold and exhaust system itself), but I've also heard that the whole engine header is a "plug&play" - is there any truth to this or I could just swap only inject+exhaust manifolds?
- "swapping those parts and computer won't give you any more power at all, because of automatic gearbox" - that is the last one and most important one
