i just took my car to a friends house and he started my car for me (had some gremlins, that i later found out was a power wire that had accidently been spliced into my anti-theft system). and he told me that my ECU (p28) was chipped for an s200 and i should either get a new ecu or an s200.
my question is (and i searched...) i thought the "chipping process" for a p28 to run any sort of engine managment was the same, be it crome or hondata or an s200. but apperantly i am wrong. is there infact a difference?
my other friend gave me his p28 (that used CROME and ran his 400whp b18) and as far as i know the two ECUs are identical.
so could they be "chipped" for an s200, because i know for a FACT one has used CROME many times.
thanks guys!

 

the s200 is one of the series that you can get from hondata.......and if im not mistaken crome is the exact same thing as a hondata s100

correct me if im wrong.


im sorry that probly doesnt really help you find out what the difference is...but it is some sort of info i saw that noone else said anything so i figured id throw my 2cent in

 

A chip can be removed and replaced with another chip or a ecu can be returned to stock state with minimal soldering or usually a jumper. I have no experience with hondata so I don't know how it is installed in the ecu but I'm assuming its just plug and play into the 28pin socket.

ok so this might get a few more responses

is the soldering for CROME and an s200 on a p28 ECU the same?

because i know i got the uberkit from MOATES which is the socket kit that you need to chip your p28 (and the ostrich emulator.
