I finally found a SH model. Not sure how much they want for it, but I went on a Sun. to go have a look at it and noticed there was a few scratches on it. There was alot on the passanger's side and in the front bumper. The front and back bumpers I dont car too much about if they have scratches, seeing on how ima get a kit anyways. Tell me what yall think.

From what I understand, all JDM ecu's have speed limiters.

well, if anyone would like to know more about this issue contact prospeed. he said they can remove the speed governer for $125. i'm not sure if this is kinda steep, but i haven't found anyone else that can do it yet.

Hey well my sponsor is selling Jun JDM ECU's NO SPEEDLIMIT... If you guys are interested it is only 250 for Mugen/Spoon/Skunk2 and the other one i don't remember but it is 275 but it isn't as good... these are fully programed ECU's not Chiped sp when you add a part it upgrades the part a little different to make it better...

who programmed these? and whats different. the main reason you get a new ecu programmed for you is for YOUR specific mods. 250 for a "universal style" "programmed" ecu is way too much. when you can send it in to hondata and have it programmed to your needs to match your car for optimal gains. (given it may be just a bit more, i think 250 is for a base price) either way.

because hondas run on MAP sensors. when you upgrade something, such as an intake, your engine doesnt know any better. it wont have its biggest gains it can have. thats why having a prepgrammed ecu like that isnt going to help. because it has to be changed after. okay i think i wrote all that right. might be a bit confusing. oh well.

Ok well who programmes this is Jun if you are a Jdm reader or fan you would know who this is.... Its not a universal ECU.... It is just a upgraded ECU which sees what is being used... FOR INSTANCE A COLD AIR INTAKE OK....
