I have this question,
I had an EP1 (D14Z6 - 90hp - SOHC - no Vtec) for 3 years before I changed to EP3. On my EP1 I changed the air intake for a cheap open cone custom made intake. (yes, powerloss when engine temp was high but very good throttle response and nice sound)
After installing this, the car drove real crappy at very low rpm, like when in traffic congestion and doing no more than 5mph, was like it was going to stall, I needed to clutch control to not make it stall! Also the fuel consumption readout was like +40% !!!
After searching for solutions online, I found out about an ECU-reset, allowing to automatically remap the A/F values.
I have to say, after doing this reset-procedure, the car drove way better than ever before, and fuel consumption was normal again. Throttle response was increased dramatically, only downside, powerloss when hot... But then again, it was a short ram open cone system.
Now in short:
after applying for example an exhaust and/or intake, could this help on EP3 aswell to let the ECU learn the new A/F for itself, in meantime save money for k-100/k_pro and let it tune properly?
Anyone done this on EP3 before?
