ive done some searching and cant get a lot of anwers.

can the ecu be chiped or do i have to get a stand alone

running 9 lbs of boost on 04 civic ex and it cuts out when v-tech kicks in

let me know what i can do or should do

 

you can get greddy emange but it sucks. I would go with kpro or ame ems they are both full stand alones but they are wonderful.

Maybe the V-tech frequencies are messing with the turbo charger.
Are you running 5.8 GHz or 2.4 GHz?

 

auto or manual?

if auto, you only can go Greddy emanage. If manual, you can go kpro, AEM EMS, or Emanage. emanage and kpro are piggybacks while AEM EMS is a standalone

 

so you're boosted, and you dont know what options there are for fuel management?

I could be wrong but I dont think kpro is a piggy back, it is a reformated ecu by hondata

 

i can use K pro with the d series motor

manual tranny

dont know the frequency

so u cant chip the ecu

I'm guessing this is a question, so yes you can. Go to the hondata website and read about it. Andyman and boilermaker are running it and are very happy with the unit. Maybe they will chime in.

No you can't. Piggyback (e-manage) or standalone (ems or kpro).

K Pro for D17
This uses a factory Honda computer. You make contact with a Hondata dealer in your area (for a dealer listing, visit http://www.hondata.com). You must pick up one of the k series i-vtec dohc ecu’s that is for a manual transmission. You either hand the stock ecu over to your dealer or make arrangements with your dealer to ship directly to Hondata in California. They then program the ecu with the standalone daughterboard and within a day or two, turn it back around and ship it back to the dealer along with a special cam gear (made by AEM) so that the k series ecu can pick up the cam trigger for the sensor. This unit retails for roughly $1200 through any dealer.


yea i think your right. Its built off the K series ECU so i thought it was a piggyback. your right
