Re: Performance intake module chip?
On a Honda fuel injection system there is no MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor,
instead the mass air flow is calculated based on manifold absolute
pressure (as indicated by the MAP sensor) and intake air temperature (as
indicated by the IAT sensor). The IAT has DEcreasing resistance for
INcreasing temperature. Cold air is denser than warm air, and this trick
works by making the ECU believe the temperature is lower than it really
is. It therefore calculates that the mass air flow is higher than it
really is and thus injects a little more fuel than it normally would.
If you simply replace the IAT sensor with a fixed resistor your engine
will run fine at a limited range of temperatures, and be just awful
outside that temperature band. If you instead insert something like 1
kohm in series with the IAT sensor you should get a more drivable engine
over a wide temperature range.
Another thing is that under steady state conditions the ECU closes the
loop based on remaining O2 in the exhaust. If it were smart enough, it
would calibrate out the additional resistance over time and you would be
back to stock performance. Don't think the ECU does this, though.

Re: Performance intake module chip?
UPDATE ON MOD, I just put a 3.9k 1/2watt resistor on my bros 96 civic and
it did make a difference. But with my car it set off the engine light. But i
got an 3.3k resistor but 1/4 watt and no light, Is the watts making a
difference or not?

3.6K is 300 ohms less than a 3.9K resistor.
I'd rather install a real cold air intake,it's worth the money,and I
believe you will get much more power.
Watt rating does not matter in this application.

I already have an cold air intake with obx headers and 2 1/4 inch piping for
exhaust.
