Default 2001 v6 accord ecu problems

i got a question. does anybody know of a place that programs ecu's bc my friends 2001 accord hits fuel cut at 110 and cant go no futher and he wants to get that taken off. any body know what he can do? he has i/h/e/vtec controller pushing 200 to the wheels and tops out at 110mph. he does real good from a drop but he cant go no futher than 110. hope somebody has a answer!!!

hondata stage 2 for $280

it is the smallest package you can get and it removes the fuel cutoff

BS. 4 or 6, doesnt matter, no way your getting 200 to the wheels with that. You cant use Hondata with any accord ECU. Some dyno time, an OBD1 conversion, and maybe a p28 ECU? With the V6 i dont even know what ECU you would use or if you even could.

the 3.0L loves mods...200 hp to the wheels is about right for i/h/e/vtec controller

yeah his is wierd. it hauls *** to 110 and it just sits there it gets nothing else im pretty sure it is a 2001 but they bought it with like 8000 miles on it. As soon as i go over to his house i will post the dyno sheets. It was done locally by speedcraft on a dynojet. thats crazy man i wander if there is something wrong with his?

I dont think it is the fuel cutoff. Mine did this as well and it is because the torque convertor locked up in 4th at around 110 so it takes it alot longer to accelerate. I did find an easy way around it though. If you plan on going above 100 then leave it in d3 until 120-125 and then shift up to d4. That should stop any high end acceleration problems and make it easy to keep on going.

nah not as much as u would believe. i guess u've never seen one on a dyno. AEM CAI, Comptech Headers, an a Greddy Exhaust, 169 to the wheels with my own 2 eyes. The guy said it baselined 149 to the wheels. 30whp with a VAFC? i dont think so. Its an automatic folks it loses more hp to the wheels than a manual.

stock it put 143 to the wheels. with the short ram intake and apexi vafc it put 169.8 to the wheels saw it with my own two eyes!!!!! then comptech headers and exhaust and high flow cats put it to 198whp saw that with my own two eyes also! the first dyno runs were done about 3 weeks before the headers and exhaust was put on.
