    Yeah Ive been reading up on that over there. They also say it malfunctions with forged internals and is of no use for boost. Which is y I wanted it in the first place so I guess no need for it now.

    Just a obd-1 ecu and a dist that will fit.

    Now the question is which ecu will be best suited for the a20?

    Darryl (from Openloop Motorsports) ended up with the F-22 distrubutor as about the only one that would fit. Even then, it still needed a bit of modification in the form of a small bracket. I emailed the guys at Distributor King and gave them a pic of our distributor for a match, and they came back with the same thing; the F-22. Seems like this is the best match (fitment wise) there is. They are two types; TEC-TD31U (internal coil, 90-91 Accord) and TEC-TD52U (external coil, 92-93 Accord).

    What exactly did you ask these people? You sent them a pic of the a20 dist?

    Yeah, I sent them pics and measurements of my dizzy, and asked them for their opinion on what would be the closest match in a Honda obd-1 distributor.

    I thought the 4th gen Accords were still obd-0? or maybe just from 92 and on are obd-1. I've got to look at my 4th gen to find out.

    The speed sensor modification might be problematic for the cruise control. We may need to use a diode not to interfere with the cruise signal. I'm at work not so I'll check the wiring diagram tomorrow and see if it is actually a problem.

    guaynabo89, the Accord were OBD-1 since 1990. I suggest everyone to use a 92-93 external coil distributor since the A20A already has the coil mounted externaly. this inveoles less wiring and reliability issues

    why would we need to modify the speed sensor if we already have one? don't we just need to hook up our speed sensor wire to the p75(or whatever ecu we choose) pin for it's speed sensor? or are they different..?

    I would not think so. You should be able to just use the P-75 pins like you say.

    There is a link on there to a spreadsheet with several ECU's, including the P72 and PR4. The PR4 should be the same as a P75 (they are both OBD1 LS Integra ECU's). If you compare the P72 and PR4, you can see they are almost exactly the same.
    i added in our ECU pinout for easier comparison of what's already there and what would need to be added. i used the pinout for the '89 ecu.

    Nice. Why is the P-75 pinout so elusive? I cannot find it anywhere. By the way, Greg, you working nights or what?

    Well most of the OBD-1 ECU's are pretty mush similar unlike the OBD-0's. AS far as I have seen the P-75, P-72, P06 are all the same just for the VTEC stuff.

    For those of you that don't know what OBD years are here they are.

    OBD 1 = All Vehicles from 1990-1996

    OBD 2 = All Vehicles from 1996-Present Year

    It definately is.


    One things for certain. I'm going to dyno my car before and after attemting the obd-1 conversion to see if there is any whp diff, and compare the hp and tq graphs to see if there was any improvements across the rpm band between the two setups.

    WHich I think there should be nothing but improvements compared to the accord fi setup.

    Someone mentioned knock sensors earlier. On the back side of the block theres a plug/Bolt just to the right and up from the oil filter housing. I'll try and posy a pic of the location later to show everyone. I'm not sure if it goes into a waterjacket or what but I'll find out when I pull it off, if I can get it off. Connect to D3 of the ECU harness plug and tadaaa

    wouldnt you want to tap a hole higher up on the block that at the oil filter housing?? I'd want it as close to where the knock would be coming from i imagine. . . . .

    Just up from the filter housing is about as High as you get, for the most part. A few inches higher and your in the head

    Once this thread goes too big, we'll have to gather all the information on a same page.

    Regarding the speed sensor, the OBD-1 ECU is looking for a 12V quare Wave while the OBD-0 is looking for a ground...

    Anyway, I posted the link for the modification needed. I just didn't have time to look into the cruise control thing.

    I believe, and someone will correct me if I am wrong, that the speedo's on the 4th gens and up were electronic rather than cable driven. I think the sensor off the 4th gen tranny's only have a plug and no cable. Or so I have been told

    The speed sensor is used by the ECU for a number of things... you cannot avoid using it...

    How would we convert to an electronic sensor... I don't want to use the cable, not do i want to use a cable driven speedo.
