That's a fun steering wheel you've got there
Our CRX has returned to the front burner, as the engine work has begun. First, a disclaimer: We’re not trying to make our track car faster, but there was some weirdness that needed attention. The speed limiter was limiting our performance, and we seemed to randomly encounter misses at cruising altitude. The car would also throw a check engine light for no discernible reason.
The fix was an ECU redo: a Hondata computer tuned by Ed Senf. The swap took place at Atlanta’s Balanced Performance Motorsports, a friendly facility located not too far from Road Atlanta. They also have one of the nicest dyno cells around.
The installation also required converting the car from OBD0 to OBD1 specs, meaning we also had to swap the distributor. Locash harness adaptors made everything a plug-and-play operation. Look for the complete story in the magazine soon, but here are some teasers: Yes, there was some ECU weirdness, as Ed was genuinely surprised that we completed a track day without burning a valve or piston.

That's a Momo Benetton F1 found NOS on eBay. It's comfy and goes with the whole late-'80s/early-'90s theme. Plus the price was right.
I one of your updates ( Some Quick CRX Updates ) you showed a link ( what may be the coolest thing ever ) but it won't load... error 404...
I have the same issue with my 91 CRX ( STS auto-x and CSP TT) and would like some more info...?
Shoot, we'll have to see if we can find another way to contact him.
any luck finding another way to contact him ?
No, no luck. We found him via honda-tech.com.
