I wouldnt install it. They dont work worth a crap. The ONLY way to get better performance off your computer is to have it programmed by someone who knows how to "chip" computers in real life.

you got scammed, those do not work. the only way to get any noticable gains out of the accord is thru forced induction.

All they do is manipulate the IAT? :eh:

You'll get better power gains on your car by throwing that thing in the garbage.

All the thing does is drain your gas and get no gains. Just get a better ecu or go to like hondadata.
