Performance gains Black Box???

[blknblu]

Any performance gains expected after removing the black box and the vacumm mess. I have searched and read how its done but not enough info on performance gains.

None apparent. Can't imagine there's more than a miniscule difference, if any.

I think with carbs is what they are talking about mostly. I cant see messing with the "black box" other than hiding it. The map sensor is in there and its needed for the FI to work.

We have a excellant FI setup for the year of our car and a very good set up compared to other cars.

No we have PGM-FI not MPFI. Theres a difference.

programmed fuel injection & multi-point fuel injection, we have both

[2drSE-i]

I meant DPFI, like the gayvics have.

PGM-FI is the "Honda Brand" of fuel injection. MPFI refers to Multi Point Fuel Injection, which is a type where fuel is injected at multiple locations (each runner). It's more of a generic term. PGM-FI can be dual point, or multi point. They're both still "Programmed Fuel Injection" as Honda calls it.

dont take it out....i took mine out and my idle is bad...not till you really go obd1 so you can tune it out....i hate driving my car in the city because my cam is a bitch with the stage 3 clutch and shitty idle going up hills(sf is just full of hills)

not till you really go obd1 so you can tune it out....

How do you convert the black box to obd1?

[A18A]

You don't. For your car to be obd1, you get a obd1 ecu & make your car run off that
