EH6TunerDaniel Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 i used to have a couple of mr2's, what he had is completely different, that is a wierd kind of form of vvti, i forget what its called, it has a set of butterfly valves on every other intake runner, at a certain rpm those valves open letting more air into the motor, your motor has nothing like that, if you want to upgrade internals, just look for pistons and rods, if you want turbo, you are going to want a lower compression whereas if you want NA, get higher, remember if you have a turbo or a high compression to use better gas also look into getting a cam and maybe adjustable cam gear, look for valves/springs...etc, what obd is your motor? is it vtec? i dunno i havent heard of the d16a9. but that old toyota motor has nothing to do with yours.

ap1drvr Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 You should be able to use the JDM ZC parts and probably the Rover 200/400 series parts from the early 90's. Not everything on the USDM 86-89 Integra will work in that motor. Is yours fuel injected or do you have the twin carbs & no catalytic converter?

Incase your buying another one, would you sell the stock one to me? If youre looking to tune, go with Hondata or Neptune after you get another ECU.
