Yes they can be "backed up". Just have to put your phone on speaker and have fun with your XBOX. So, what did they say? Like I mention before, it is practical to source a P30 ecu. Look to spend around $200. There's a dude selling his for $500 at the Norcal Marketplace. If you think it's worth it. I'm not advertising for him. I just think he's a b*tch for doing that.

Hey thanks for putting up with my **** and finally I've decided to go k-series. I know what's involved and what I need and the costs. thanks to k20.org I've found out the info I need. So next week I'm picking up the motor and some parts. Pretty soon I'll post up a build thread and a write up w/pics of how to BAR it. So yeah, thanks again!

he can and HAS to run the si ecu. in california the ecu code has to match the engine code if i remember correctly. and the transmission needs to match too i think.

rhymeshark916

Oh really?

jdmcertified909

Yes he needs to run the matching ecu. Tranny doesnt matter

Not 100% sure but couldn't you run 96-98 ex engine harness with stock 96-98 dx cabin harness and just use a obd2a to obd2b jumper harness to hookup the 99-00 si ecu. Well this work? Anybody know??

if u keep ur sock dx radiator then
94-01 gsr for lower radiator hose
94-97 del sol for upper hose

Check out the FAQ thread. It has ton's of helpful info for swaps.

bunkrd you

its much easier and cheaper to add vtec to your harness trust me it wasnt worth the 200+ dollars for the ex wiring harness just because it has an extra two plugs

bunkrd you

Just keep the ecu obd2a with either a 96-98 gsr ecu or a 96-98 p30 del sol ecu. Add vtec to your wiring harness.

I dont know if you have found a harness but I have a obda2 harness that came off a b18c forsale. So all you would need is a ecu adaptor and you can use your si ecu.

That will cause Check engine lights, which is a automatic fail.

Thanks or input, but guys I'm doing this^^^

So just stick with a 99-00 p2t si ecu and just mod the harness???
Will this setup throw a cel???

Can always get a p28 for like 100 or cheaper and get the basemap changed to a p30 works fine!
