Default Venom 400 and ECU's

i was looking into doing an ecu upgrade possibly hondata but i want something that i can just switch back to normal emissions to pass smog...i found this venom product, does anyone know if this is worth the money or how it really works..do you have to switch out the stock ecu or leave in place...best thing about it is that it's OBDII compatible.. this is for a 5th gen lude

Just fyi, an OBD-I conversion can be simply " switched back to normal " as you say... just unplug it andthe conversion harness and plug the factory OBD-II ECU back in whenever that time of year comes around

Modules are just piggy-back systems that run predetermined settings based on the general characteristics of the H22A4 engine. Will it make power gains?... maybe, maybe not. Every engine is different, and many factors play a part in what your engine needs as far as fuel delivery and ignition timing are concerned. Your best bet is to go with something that is programmable.

if you want to fill the effect of the venom 400 before you buy it, go get in your car and floor it. now once you have got the gas all the way to the floor, push it down a little harder.............there ya go.

all the venom does is trick your computer into thinking that you are at WOT while you are at partial. because of this it will not do anything when you are really at WOT. good way to kill gas..

waste of money
