    Another R18A1 thread about ECU's

    Howdy,

    Does anyone know other options of tuning aside from Hondata as I don't feel like changing the ECU.




    P.S. Before anyone says "why bother" or anything like that, maybe I'm just wanting to explore my options for the lolz

    Most are designed for the US model, so you'll start by troubleshooting that side of it. Besides that unless you're going to turbo it, you are honestly burning money with little to gain.

    I'm not ruling out a turbo eventually , It's primarily just for practice, I don't feel like paying 10k to swap the engine or doing myself as I don't have an area to do it in, and I don't yet feel like changing cars yet. I'm not expecting it to really climb by much, just like driving and I find this fun.

    Just to note ... anything aside from changing the ECU is going to be a placebo and will ultimately be an expensive plastic box with a circuit board inside.

    I imagine it wouldn't know how to use it without it, I'm planning to switch to a US ecu anyway so I can use Hondata

    PM Stevil he did it previously, and he might still have his turbo kit.
