Civic EG

Hello! i am a newbie to the site but i bought my first eg a couple of weeks ago. The person before me put a d16y7 in the car with the 1.5 liter harness and computer. ive been trying to scavenge for a ecu and harness and i dont know exactly what to get. can you helpe me out? Thanks! B>S

any none vtec civic from 96-2000 will work for the harness
the correct ecu for that motor is a p2a
why exactly are you looking for the harness and ecu ?
does the setup you have run ?

You will have to buy a OBD1/OBD2 conversion harness to run the correct OBD2 ecu for that motor, out of a dx or lx civic.

OR you could get a chipped OBD1 ecu (P06 or P28) and upload a D16y7 base map if you know someone who knows how to tune.

it may be a little unorthodox, but you would be fine to just run a P06... I do it on my y7 swap, and still get great gas mileage, runs great, and passed emissions by like 1000%.
but i also have it completely converted to OBD1


though im sure alot of people will disagree with this

I thought about posting the same thing
Not correct ecu for the motor, but it will work.
The fuel curves are probably not 100% correct for the d16y7 since it is 1.6 vs 1.5 and has the goofy throttle body on top of intake design, But the injectors are the same size so that's good.
Would the timing be slightly off though with the P06?
I believe there is a slight difference between OBD1 & OBD2 timing...

the difference is in how the cams are keyed...

There is a huge difference between the ignition timing tables from OBD1 to OBD2 D-series. But I don't think it's very critical for the Y7 which is hardly a high-revving performance motor.

since i use crome, i have never been able to look at any OBD2 maps.
