you pretty much wasted 700, you could just go to any honda shop and have the stock ecu for the j32 chipped and theyll dyno same time $350-$400

I am sorry but that simply isn't true. The J series engines do not have the same applications available as the other Honda engines. The only tunable PLUG AND PLAY option for the J32 is AEM the only other options are OEM (untunable) and the various nonspecific ECUs (Megasquirt, Halltech, etc.)


To the OP.
I would love to see a little more about your wiring. I am trying to wire mine up and I am not quite the wiring wiz that you are.

c3130654 : Who did your headers? I noticed your NB didn't have to cut the intake manifold in order for it to fit, but all other swaps did, Why??

Fastback is coming along. The trunk will be opening, just finished designing the hinges. The trunk is getting one half moulded tomorrow. Then the other side done on the weekend. Then I can mould the main section.

This motor will be going into a friends car. I think the plan is to drift it.
I don't really need another project anyways. I have my track car, took it out on the weekend. Came 7th out of 120 competitors. 5 of them happened to be GT3 (Porsche and Ferrari) race cars practicing for an upcoming event.
