    You will be running way lean if you don't use K-pro, and also, another major problem without k-pro is that fact that you won't be able to start the car since your immobilizer won't be disabled.

    Unless he is planning to use the Accord's ECU? make sure you check that its not a auto -ecu

    "Don't drive it until you get k-pro" + "you are gonna blow your motor"

    I don't think that your mechanic is being responsible by advising that you can run the swap without k-pro/ ECU tuning, stock internals or not have nothing to do with your engine knocking up + blowing

    your mechanic is a douche bag, get a proper ecu or risk your motor, and you need proper fuel pressure to go thru or bang!

    You will also need eng certificate if you want this swap to be legit since you are upping your displacement >20%

    My ****ing god, the EXACT same thing happen to me on the hume hwy aswell.. my thoughts were i had hydrolocked aswell but luckily i didn't suck up any water, i only rolled into the massive puddle .. Car died, towed it home and had someone look at it and it was fine. Scared the shit out of me. Goodluck with the build

    The puddles were pretty deep I guess. Approx ankle deep. I wasnt gunning it either. Just normal shifting before I get to 3K rpm. You'd had to have been there.
