Asked by Joseph Anthony Oct 12, 2011 at 06:33 PM about the Honda Civic

Question type: Car Customization

i am planning to get an upgraded ECU for my civic. it will be used for tuning gear ratio, electronic distribution and most importantly
the fuel economy after i had a Chaos fuel-saver pump with control switch..what's the best option?

And where do i get the tuning/dyno app (and whatever else is needed, wires, bolts, etc.) for my laptop? is it available online or
what? i want to do the diagnosis and tuning myself...thanks and much love to all the Civics out there!

Not sure what kind of Civic you have where ECU has anything to do with gear ratio, but there are a ton of Honda tuning forums out there. Do some google searching, or this might be a good start: http://wikitest.pgmfi.org/twiki/bin/view.pl
