Thinking about doin an auto mpfi swap keeping obd0

First off wagon is ff auto d15b2 want a lil pep i have done several times on ef's
and know that it is a nice upgrade. Dont bash keeping the auto either it works great and is awesome for city driving which we do alot.
This is what i was thinking of using

Y8 Intake
Custom harness using the de-pinning re-pinning method which i have made a few lol
Auto rt ecu or a 91 ex auto ecu <---"alot harder to find"
My question is does anyone know if you can take a chipped 0bd1 manual ecu and use it since obd1 tranny comps are in the ecu and piggy back it with the obd0 tranny comp

    no tranny comp on obd0 cars.

    you SHOULD be able to run an auto D16A6 ecu. i cant see any reason why not... probably even a MT PM6 ecu

    My Integra was OBD0 and had a separate AT computer. Maybe look into the 90-91 integras for what your after??

    thats cool i didnt know B's came with tranny comps

    when i did my auto to manual swap it was just the one ECU in the car. but that was my 1990 civic. no integra. :(

    sorry for the bad info OP

    You can run a PS9 ECU which is a 90-91 Civic EX 1.6 w/Auto trans ECU... They are a little hard to find, but can usually get them for $100. I may know where there is one.

    The hardest part is is going to be making the transmission kick-down linkage, that makes your trans down shift when you step hard on the gas... You can use the linkage and throttle wheel from a CB accord, with a little adjusting... :)

    I did this a few years ago and it is a GREAT improvement..

    And, don't down yourself for keeping it Auto, I love auto for an around town DD..

    I currently have my 2wd wagon dis-assembled, or I would show you how-too.

    Only reason i found it was cause it sits where the clutch pedal needed to go, lol. had no idea there was one till i needed to install that pedal assembly.
