Welcome. Any mods done to the swap?


And at elitejdm... I had no idea you had the h23 vtec swap.. Will now be digging out your ride thread.. If there is one. If not I would love to see pics and hear more about it.. I'm a H series whore.

Nah, the h23a vtec is completely stock... I want to upgrade the cams, but that's going to be in the very far future
I'm even using the original f23a1 ecu still.. Hey, it works! :thumbsup:

yeah it may work.. but your not getting all the fun out of the motor with that ecu. and dont upgrade the cams. there not much more out there thats gonna give you any gains. those cams are really good spec for the motors setup. upgrade your manifold and throttle body size first.. then along with a tri-y header

I know I'm not getting the full potential from my current ecu... But it's good enough to get me around for now ;)
And I'm using my f23 throttle body so I can keep cruise control; can't find an upgrade that would still let me keep that feature. So I'm planning on leaving it like that for a while. Guess I'm just one of those people who would prefer keeping something as nice as cruise control haha :D

Throttle linkages. I think that's the word I was thinking of haha. brain went dead when I tried remembering the name.
But you know how the f23 throttle body has a linkage for the accelerator cable and cruise cable? Pretty dumb in my opinion how this car has two cables...
