Default Integra ECU questions

How do I know that the ECU was tampered with, Re-programmed it or anything of that nature?

I question it because there were so many issues on my teg from previous buyer.

Thanks in advance from a Noob.

Open up the top lid (5 phillips screws) and compare:

Look in the lower right corner and you'll notice what components are added.

Will this be the way anyone who reflashes will go?

Integras do not have a flashable memory. All integra ECU's will need to be chipped to be modified.
