are you installing it?

you know you can likely buy an ecu from a hondata dealer with it already installed. That way when it comes to you, it's already done and has a basemap loaded. All you gotta do it plug it in

unless you want to install it yourself, then dont listen to me

You can buy a hondata s300 unit pre-installed in a obd1 ecu
You will need an obd2 to obd1 jumper (plug & play harness) aswell.

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask away
