Default obd2b to obd2 HELP!!

Hi all, I have a 00' prelude and are trying to put in a 01' accord Euro R ECU. Of course the ECU connectors are not the same and I tried to look for a harness converter but no luck.....


Does anybody know how to convert this or know a company that can convert this???

Already tried Skunk2....

i talked to the good people from boomslang today and there's one problem.... they said there's going to be a problem with your iacv, because they are totally different: (euro r has 3 plug connectors and usdm prelude has 2 and they will not bolt up either) !!!

have anybody tried to fix this problem? if so, is it possible and how????

nothing, just want to have higher red line and little more fuel. i plan to add crower stage 1 camshafts and raise compression with cometic head gasket to about 11.3:1 ... and probably port and polish the head too. that is just it for my daily drive.

so you don't think i could do anything with this euro r ecu huh???
