They are not. ECHC does not allow anything other then the OEM ECU to be used with 2 exceptions. Hybrids can use any engine management, that is chiped OE ECUs, alternate ECUs, and picgy back ECU like the VAFC. ECHC legal cars prepped to other series, such as IT, GrandAm, etc whcih allow alternate ECUs are allowed.

Details in the ECHC rule book.

I will offer up an alternate (very unofficial) opinion. The rules state <U>any</U> OEM ECU, not just <U>the</U> OEM one. Thus, a 1st gen. CRX Si could run in H5 with an early Integra ECU, so long as it isn't re-programmed, etc.

Keith is correct.

Anyone with Honda Challenge rules questions is again reminded to contact me directly. My email address and phone number are in the rulebook. karl@honda-challenge.com. honda-tech.com is a great board, but is not the official clearinghouse for information and questions. As such, I may very well miss questions such as this.

VAFC use would be nice.
I had to disable mine during the races last season.
