96 is p13 I believe.

But its the year it went OBD2. You do have OBD 2 right?

yes, it's OBD II, but no immobilize

 

P13 is OBDI only. i believe the OBDII are P5M

i was wrong. i guess 96 OBD II are also p13, but with OBD II pinouts. P5M is for 97-01 OBD II

 

Confusing. Honda Must have been hitting the bottal kinda hard that year<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by vlang29 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">

im not calling you a liar, but when I took out my p13 from my 93 vtec model to my friend's 96 vtec model, he couldnt use my p13 ecu, b/c the plugs wouldn't fit.

The plug wouldn't fit because it is OBD II. The name P13 or P5M has nothing to do with what version of OBD it is and everything to do with model, generation and sometimes, as in this case, trim level. Calling these ECUs P13, P28, P72 etc is entirely an aftermarket and tuner thing.

I should have said same ecu code, of course the obd2 is different than the obd1

 

that's beause OBD I has 2 rows of pins and OBD II has 3 rows of pins

....among other things, but yes

 

so, out of curiosity, would a p5m work fine plugged into an OBD II 96?

 

No

The p5(x) ecus have immobilizers, so it wouldn't really work.... and if it did, the injectors are smaller, so it wouldn't run right....
