Ok I started her and had to adjust my intercooler pipings to fit my battery. Then I took her out for a spin around the block. She lags from 2000 to 3000 RPM's but after that my turbo spools up and even an untuned k24 turbo setup she halls a$$. I can't wait to adjust my kpro some more to get her running smoother. I'm also running just the downpipe so she's freakin loud. I'll try to get some video up this weekend.

sorry i have been busy trying to get my car running better. im running a PND kpro ecu and my tsx ecu with the k-tuned dual harness. kpro is definitely worth it if you want the most power out of your honda or acura. my knock sensor isnt working right now so i cant really tune my car. the new knock sensor should be in soon and hopefully i can get it running better before i hit the dyno.

Finally got my car running with the right kal and with good fuel pressure. I'll be hitting up DB performance early next month for a dyno tune. Wish me luck. I'll try to get some videos up.

I probably spent about $6000 for the setup. It helps when you do your own fabrication.

Nice build! I'd like to take a look at your setup next time you're in the Minneapolis area if you don't mind. I'll PM you my cell number.

Yeah that's cool I don't mind at all. I'll probably be back up there next month to finish my tune.

^What was causing the issue?

We had my car running good on Kpro last night (and for the past 3 weeks) and all we did today before running to the track is set the ecu up to datalog. All of a sudden, 5500 RPM limit and no matter what we change the rev limiter to with the ECU, as soon as we click to disconnect the ECU it reverts back to 5500 RPM regardless. We're stumped and 15.5's were not what I was hoping for or shifting at 5500 today...

Have you tried putting a stock map in, disconnect from it, and then try loading your tuned map back in? I had to do that with my DSM a while back because it was doing almost the same thing.
