Default ECU for the K20?

To tell you guys the truth, I'm new to the K20 swap world. So yeah, I'm aware of k20a.org I went to the post but I was thinking, do they sell chipped ECU's for the k20? Should I convert it to obd1? etc. I need some advice/opinions on this :]

Unless you pull the harness from an RSX or Civic SI youll need to convert to obd1 and run Kpro which isnt to cheap.

That's what I was thinking. It would just be best to get the entire harness and ecu so that you won't have to jump anything.

Gotcha. Any place where I can actually get a harness? Or make my own? Hmm, why not just put the ECU under my dashboard?

People make good power with bolt ons and K-Pro. So just get K-pro

isn't there an issue with the ignition and crap... immobilizer in the ecu?

That's why people get k-pro also

Sweet, I guess I'll go K-PRO. I think it was the AEM one that had the issue, not sure. I read about it somewhere at k20a.
