Immobilizer Removal
I'm a little apprehensive about this topic since I don't want to aid any theives out there but I'd like to know how to remove the key side of the immobilizer.
I have a 5th gen 5-speed base with a Hondata on a P72 that I track often and I'd like to remove all unneccessary components. I was under the impression that the immobilizer features would be gone when I replaced the stock ECU, but apparently there is also a key side to the immobilizer. I found this out after I had disconnected the key immobilizer box on the steering column. Is there a way to bypass this system? Should I just get another key and ignition switch?
It's ok, I wearing my flame suit. If you'd like to tell just me and not the whole world -- IM me with the answers. Thanks.

As honest as you may be, you said it yourself. Too many thieves to just leave info like this on a public forum. Immobilizer will not really affect your track times anyway.

Re: Immobilizer Removal (bdb)
This won't help theives at all. If you remove even the key side of the immob system, the ECU will not get the required signals from the Immob system so the car still will not start anyhow. Otherwise you could just reach up under the dash, slightly to the right of the steering column, and unplug the wires going into the box with the FCC sticker on it
