Default Dinan stage 2 ecu

Has anyone have any experience with the dinan stage 2 chip on their h22. I would like to know if its worth it the shop is selling it to me for 150 thats the complete ecu with the dinan chip, my current mods are I/H/E would I see any horsepower gains, I know dinan have discontinued their honda line of products and I there are no information available about their chip. thanks in advace.
My other question, can someone confirm if this is a usdm obd1 h22 ecu (part # 37820-P13-L12 ). Thanks again!

I did not even know they offered it for Honda. They're usually for MINIs and BMWs

Money better spent elsewhere.....Better off with a VAFC on a stock ecu.

yes but no, do not get a vafc, thats complete trash.

that is an obd1 ecu.

that chip is not bad but its not the best thing you can get. I have a few h22a tunes with basic i/h/e that would preform much better then the dinan chip.

wouldnt call it trash. I'd be more comfortable on a vafc tuned than running around on someones guess.

you would run a vafc over an others tune of the same motor?
good luck with that. I would agree if it was a guess, i don't sell a guesses.
