Looks like topic has much info on auto b16 transmission setups, but not much on obd1 d16 auto setups. Anyone has first hand experience with such animal ? Thanks.

it's basically the same thing, but it's harder to do the mid-vacuum portion of the map... You have less control over load and rpm... Aside from that it is basically the same principals as tuning a manual.

Thanks. Any tips on which ecu I should tune with? And is there a different procedure to chip the auto ecu?

I guess i just answered my own question, but maybe with a wrong asnwer. Should say, is the auto ecu able to be chipped, and is there a different chipping procedure?

Same procedure just start with an auto rom.... Or rather... Start with your auto ecu specified when making your first .cal.
