Should i purchase a Hondata K-Pro ECU for my AUTOMATIC Accord? I want the EXTRA Boost but want to stick with N/A. (All motor) Maybe turbo. (Maybe)

 

Didnt think the k-pro would work for the accord

s100, s200, s300. Wheither your n/a or boost. The hondata ecu allows for dyno tunning to make the car run to its best performance. Tunes the a/f ratio . If your n/a and lots of bolt ons. You really dont see the most power of the bolt ones until your tuned. If your going to boost , then youll need some type of engine management.

 

Cstyleaccord makes a custom harness for the hondata to work on an auto k24. It is not cheap, but it'll work. It's pointless to get however, unless you have built internals and need to change things like cam angle, a/f, spark, etc, or you have a turbo.

But seeing as you've got all this cash for rear end conversions, I'm assuming you can drop 1500 on the hondata ecu and the harness.

 

you serious !!! 1500 on just the ecu and harness.

 

umm, excuse my ignorance, but why wouldn't K-Pro work on an Accord? I could maybe see where the problem would be is the vehicle being and automatic, but a K-series engine is still a k-series engine...

That is not very expensive for a fully programmable engine management and a harness. Look at AEM EMS, it's right around the same price.

No, less, it only cost me 1150 for the kpro, RSX PRB ECU, and custom harness. Auto harness is 200 more.

The accord motor is different than the other K-series motors like the k20a2, and k20a. This would also apply to the k24a2 TSX motor as well. The biggest thing is that with kpro, none of the gauges will be able to work, along with the VSS. Also for whatever reason, kpro doesn't like the stock primary o2 sensor, so in this case, you have to swap it with an rsx-s o2 sensor to make it work (k24a4 is narrowband, k20a2 is wideband).
