"PWM boost control cannot be used on a JDM ECU."

Now that would be a problem since it has the JDM P30 Ecu...


JUST GET A VIRGIN P28 OFF EBAY IF YOU CAN AND YOUR GOOD TO GO..

and yes the B16's here in the states are a little different

JDM B16's have different cam's and pistons
and supposedly AUTO B16's have smaller cams.


Auto. no it's the ECU..

#235531 For someone who said to go ls vtec in the beginning of this post, don't do that. LS vtec motors are the most unreliable build. Best NA b-series you can do is b20vtec. For a b16 I would say to just turbo it because you are going to put so much money to make a NA b16 hit 200+ whp and then if you do manage to do that you need to look at how bad your gas mileage is going to go down lol on top of having to run a way higher octane. So just go boost and save yourself money and a headache :thumb:

Good luck!
