Nope still get the code 12, recently chipped my jdm p13 ecu with a spoon sports chip and still get great performance just have that damn cel that kicks on sometimes. I am thinking about bypassing the damn egr

I did a seafoam clean, cleaned egr ports, replaced egr valve($200+)

Haven't checked the cat recently

i went to honda and had the car pluged in to the scope and everything was perfect. anyway, i'll tell you what the problem was. the egr ports in the intake were carbonated. there is a service at the dealer they do for it. all accords and preludes have this common problem. there are little caps (service plugs) they remove almost like freeze plugs but at the intake and they had to drill the carbon out. there is also a solvent they used like a throttle body cleaner. n-e way go to honda to have this done. it is only 2 hours labour and the caps for the intake. the car is running really well now and feels like it has its power back.

it cost me a little more because i had the car plugged into the scope, but the total was $300.00 canadian tax included. it should have been around $200-250.00. n-e way it was worth it the wheels don't stop spinning in 1st and it bounces through second and half of third. there is a lot more power.
