Ok I am running a chipped and converted P06 in my car with a B16. This is my first DIY so keep that in mind. Plus i did this like a month ago so the chipping pic is borrowed.
The first step is to figure out what board your ecu has so you can get the right v-tec conversion kit. You'll see in a pic lower on how to tell.
Also I have no photo editing software so i had to use paint.
My board was a 11FO so here is the kit i needed:
it consists of:
1uF Capacitor labeled C60 (thats where it goes on the board)
10k ohm resistor R201
NTE2366 transistor Q101
SK5151 High side switch IC14
1N4002 clamping diode D11
As far as the sodering it is ALOT easier if you use braid to remove these. The first one i did i used one of those bulbs to remove the solder and it was sloppy and time consumeing.
the red circle on the right is you board number.
Ok the blue circle contains two parts the top is C60 this is where the 1uF capacitor goes. This capacitor has a positive and a negative side. it labled on the capacitor and board. make sure you get this one right as if you dont it will pop as soon as you get power to the ecu. i did this on my first one and couldn't find anywhere. I ended up pulling one out of a cheap universal remote.
underneath C60 is J10 all you need here is a jumper. i used a peice left over from the capacitor.
In the red circle on the left is Q101 thats where your NTE2366 resistor goes
the red arrow is R201 thats where your 10K ohm resistor goes.
The green circle is IC14 thats where your SK5151 high side switch goes.
The black circle is D11 this is where your 1N4002 clamping diode goes. Please note that this one is a directional diode kinda like C60. There are two more diodes that are already on board match it's direction to those.
now your converted to v-tec
here is a pic of the chipping process it's alot easier to do then the conversion. It's pretty self-explanitory.
The v-tec conversion i got from xenocron.com and the chipping kit from phearable.net with a chip programmed to my specs.
The chipping kit with programmed chip is 30.00 with a standard socket add 10.00 for the ziff socket (which i highly recomend)
the conversion was 19.00.
it took my about two hours to do this. Basic sodering skills and patience are all thats required.
when i'm ripp'n around town i run a chip that has v-tec set at 4000 then when i'm gonna make a road trip i pop in a chip with it set 5200 and it saves me a little gas.
well thats that
